Listen to Psalm 135:17
17 Ohren haben sie und hören nicht; auch ist kein Odem in ihrem Munde.

Psalm 135:17 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 135:17

They have ears, but they hear not
(See Gill on Psalms 115:6);

neither is there [any] breath in their mouths;
they are lifeless statues, they have not so much as what the brute creatures have, breath; our Jehovah, as the living God, is rightly opposed to them, who gives life, and breath, and all things, unto man; and yet what amazing stupidity is it, that any of them should worship such as gods, who have not what they themselves have.
