Jeremiah 51:18
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
They are worthless, a work to be mocked. In the time of their punishment they will perish.
In context

17 Every man is senseless and devoid of knowledge; every goldsmith is put to shame by his idols. For his molten images are a fraud, and there is no breath in them.
18 They are worthless, a work to be mocked. In the time of their punishment they will perish.
19 The Portion of Jacob is not like these, for He is the Maker of all things, and of the tribe of His inheritance— the LORD of Hosts is His name.
20 “You are My war club, My weapon for battle. With you I shatter nations; with you I bring kingdoms to ruin.
