Salmos 135:18

18 Tornem-se[a] como eles aqueles que os fazeme todos os que neles confiam.

Salmos 135:18 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 135:18

They that make them are like unto them
Are as blind, stupid, and senseless as they; or "let them that make them" F17; so some versions and interpreters; (See Gill on Psalms 115:8);

[so is] everyone that trusteth in them;
alike ignorant and sottish: and so are all such that set up idols and lusts in their own hearts, and serve them; or trust to their own righteousness; even all unregenerate and self-righteous persons: they cannot speak a word for God and his grace, for Christ and his righteousness, for the Spirit of God, and his work upon their hearts, of all which they are ignorant; they are blind and have no sight and sense of their sin and misery, and of their need of Christ and his righteousness; they are deaf to his Gospel, and the charming voice of it; they are lifeless and breathless, are dead in trespasses and sins, and have no pantings and desires after spiritual things.
