Psalm 115:4-8
New King James Version
4 (A)Their idols are silver and gold,
The work of men’s hands.
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak;
Eyes they have, but they do not see;
6 They have ears, but they do not hear;
Noses they have, but they do not smell;
7 They have hands, but they do not handle;
Feet they have, but they do not walk;
Nor do they mutter through their throat.
8 (B)Those who make them are like them;
So is everyone who trusts in them.
Isaiah 37:19

But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.
