Translation: World English Bible — Catholic Edition

" They can show no mercy to the widow, or do good to the fatherless. "

Baruch 6:38

menu_book Verse in Context

36 They can save no man from death. They can’t deliver the weak from the mighty.

37 They can’t restore a blind man to his sight, or deliver anyone who is in distress.

38 They can show no mercy to the widow, or do good to the fatherless.

39 They are like the stones that are cut out of the mountain, these gods of wood that are overlaid with gold and with silver. Those who minister to them will be confounded.

40 How could a man then think or say that they are gods, when even the Chaldeans themselves dishonor them?
