• Psalm 115:4-7
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  4 Their idols are silver and gold,

      The work of human hands.+

       5 A mouth they have, but they cannot speak;+

      Eyes, but they cannot see;

       6 Ears they have, but they cannot hear;

      A nose, but they cannot smell;

       7 Hands they have, but they cannot feel;

      Feet, but they cannot walk;+

      They make no sound with their throat.+

  • Isaiah 46:6, 7
    New World Translation of the Holy Scriptures

    •  6 There are those who lavish gold from their purse;

      They weigh out the silver on the scale.

      They hire a metalworker, and he makes it into a god.+

      Then they prostrate themselves, yes, they worship it.*+

       7 They lift it to their shoulders;+

      They carry it and put it in its place, and it just stands there.

      It does not move from its place.+

      They cry out to it, but it does not answer;

      It cannot rescue anyone from distress.+
