Psalms 135:15-18

[15] The idols  of the heathen  are silver  and gold,  the work  of men's  hands.  [16] They have mouths,  but they speak  not; eyes  have they, but they see  [17] They have ears,  but they hear  not; neither is there  any breath  in their mouths.  [18] They that make  them are like unto them: so is every one that trusteth  in them.
