New King James Version
33 (A)Has any of the gods of the nations at all delivered its land from the hand of the king of Assyria? 34 Where are the gods of (B)Hamath and Arpad? Where are the gods of Sepharvaim and Hena and (C)Ivah?

Psalm 135:15-18
New King James Version
15 (A)The idols of the nations are silver and gold,
The work of men’s hands.
16 They have mouths, but they do not speak;
Eyes they have, but they do not see;
17 They have ears, but they do not hear;
Nor is there any breath in their mouths.
18 Those who make them are like them;
So is everyone who trusts in them.
Isaiah 44:8-11
New King James Version
8 Do not fear, nor be afraid;
(A)Have I not told you from that time, and declared it?
(B)You are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
Indeed (C)there is no other Rock;
I know not one.’ ”
Idolatry Is Foolishness
9 (D)Those who make an image, all of them are useless,
And their precious things shall not profit;
They are their own witnesses;
(E)They neither see nor know, that they may be ashamed.
10 Who would form a god or mold an image
(F)That profits him nothing?
11 Surely all his companions would be (G)ashamed;
And the workmen, they are mere men.
Let them all be gathered together,
Let them stand up;
Yet they shall fear,
They shall be ashamed together.
