¹⁵ The idols of the nations^(A) are silver and gold,
    made by human hands.^(B)
16 They have mouths, but cannot speak,^(C)
    eyes, but cannot see.
¹⁷ They have ears, but cannot hear,
    nor is there breath^(D) in their mouths.
¹⁸ Those who make them will be like them,
    and so will all who trust in them.

⁴ They adorn it with silver^(A) and gold;
    they fasten it with hammer and nails
    so it will not totter.^(B)

⁹ Hammered silver is brought from Tarshish^(A)
    and gold from Uphaz.
What the craftsman and goldsmith have made^(B)
    is then dressed in blue and purple—
    all made by skilled workers.

¹⁴ Everyone is senseless and without knowledge;
    every goldsmith is shamed^(A) by his idols.
The images he makes are a fraud;^(B)
    they have no breath in them.
