Jeremiah 16:19-20

19 O Lord, my strength and my fortress,
my refuge in time of distress,
to you the nations will come
from the ends of the earth and say,
“Our fathers possessed nothing but false gods,
worthless idols that did them no good.

20 Do men make their own gods?
Yes, but they are not gods!”
