Psalms 115:4-11

4Their 1idols are silver and gold, The 2work of man’s hands.5They have mouths, but they 3cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see;6They have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell;74They have hands, but they cannot feel; 5They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat.86Those who make them 7will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them.

9O 8Israel, 9trust in the Lord; He is their 10help and their shield.10O house of 11Aaron, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.11You who 1213fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.
