Moreover{G2532} ye see{G2334}{(G5719)} and{G2532} hear{G191}{(G5719)}, that{G3754} not{G3756} alone{G3440} at Ephesus{G2181}, but{G235} almost{G4975} throughout all{G3956} Asia{G773}, this{G3778} Paul{G3972} hath persuaded{G3982}{(G5660)} and turned away{G3179}{(G5656)} much{G2425} people{G3793}, saying{G3004}{(G5723)} that{G3754} they be{G1526}{(G5748)} no{G3756} gods{G2316}, which{G3588} are made{G1096}{(G5740)} with{G1223} hands{G5495}:

Isa 44:10-20 : 10 Who hath formed{H3335}{(H8804)} a god{H410}, or molten{H5258}{(H8804)} a graven image{H6459} that is profitable{H3276}{(H8687)} for nothing{H1115}? 11 Behold, all his fellows{H2270} shall be ashamed{H954}{(H8799)}: and the workmen{H2796}, they are of men{H120}: let them all be gathered together{H6908}{(H8691)}, let them stand up{H5975}{(H8799)}; yet they shall fear{H6342}{(H8799)}, and they shall be ashamed{H954}{(H8799)} together{H3162}. 12 The smith{H1270}{H2796} with the tongs{H4621} both worketh{H6466}{(H8804)} in the coals{H6352}, and fashioneth{H3335}{(H8799)} it with hammers{H4717}, and worketh{H6466}{(H8799)} it with the strength{H3581} of his arms{H2220}: yea, he is hungry{H7457}, and his strength{H3581} faileth{H369}: he drinketh{H8354}{(H8804)} no water{H4325}, and is faint{H3286}{(H8799)}. 13 The carpenter{H2796}{H6086} stretcheth out{H5186}{(H8804)} his rule{H6957}; he marketh it out{H8388}{(H8762)} with a line{H8279}; he fitteth{H6213}{(H8799)} it with planes{H4741}, and he marketh it out{H8388}{(H8762)} with the compass{H4230}, and maketh{H6213}{(H8799)} it after the figure{H8403} of a man{H376}, according to the beauty{H8597} of a man{H120}; that it may remain{H3427}{(H8800)} in the house{H1004}. 14 He heweth him down{H3772}{(H8800)} cedars{H730}, and taketh{H3947}{(H8799)} the cypress{H8645} and the oak{H437}, which he strengtheneth{H553}{(H8762)} for himself among the trees{H6086} of the forest{H3293}: he planteth{H5193}{(H8804)} an ash{H766}, and the rain{H1653} doth nourish{H1431}{(H8762)} it. 15 Then shall it be for a man{H120} to burn{H1197}{(H8763)}: for he will take{H3947}{(H8799)} thereof, and warm{H2552}{(H8799)} himself; yea, he kindleth{H5400}{(H8686)} it, and baketh{H644}{(H8804)} bread{H3899}; yea, he maketh{H6466}{(H8799)} a god{H410}, and worshippeth{H7812}{(H8691)} it; he maketh{H6213}{(H8804)} it a graven image{H6459}, and falleth down{H5456}{(H8799)} thereto. 16 He burneth{H8313}{(H8804)} part{H2677} thereof in{H1119} the fire{H784}; with part{H2677} thereof he eateth{H398}{(H8799)} flesh{H1320}; he roasteth{H6740}{(H8799)} roast{H6748}, and is satisfied{H7646}{(H8799)}: yea, he warmeth{H2552}{(H8799)} himself, and saith{H559}{(H8799)}, Aha{H1889}, I am warm{H2552}{(H8804)}, I have seen{H7200}{(H8804)} the fire{H217}: 17 And the residue{H7611} thereof he maketh{H6213}{(H8804)} a god{H410}, even his graven image{H6459}: he falleth down{H5456}{(H8799)} unto it, and worshippeth{H7812}{(H8691)} it, and prayeth{H6419}{(H8691)} unto it, and saith{H559}{(H8799)}, Deliver{H5337}{(H8685)} me; for thou art my god{H410}. 18 They have not known{H3045}{(H8804)} nor understood{H995}{(H8799)}: for he hath shut{H2902}{(H8804)} their eyes{H5869}, that they cannot see{H7200}{(H8800)}; and their hearts{H3826}, that they cannot understand{H7919}{(H8687)}. 19 And none considereth{H7725}{(H8686)} in his heart{H3820}, neither is there knowledge{H1847} nor understanding{H8394} to say{H559}{(H8800)}, I have burned{H8313}{(H8804)} part{H2677} of it in{H1119} the fire{H784}; yea, also I have baked{H644}{(H8804)} bread{H3899} upon the coals{H1513} thereof; I have roasted{H6740}{(H8799)} flesh{H1320}, and eaten{H398}{(H8799)} it: and shall I make{H6213}{(H8799)} the residue{H3499} thereof an abomination{H8441}? shall I fall down{H5456}{(H8799)} to the stock{H944} of a tree{H6086}? 20 He feedeth{H7462}{(H8802)} on ashes{H665}: a deceived{H2048}{(H8795)} heart{H3820} hath turned him aside{H5186}{(H8689)}, that he cannot deliver{H5337}{(H8686)} his soul{H5315}, nor say{H559}{(H8799)}, Is there not a lie{H8267} in my right hand{H3225}?
Acts 17:29 : 29 Forasmuch then{G3767} as we are{G5225}{(G5723)} the offspring{G1085} of God{G2316}, we ought{G3784}{(G5719)} not{G3756} to think{G3543}{(G5721)} that the Godhead{G2304} is{G1511}{(G5750)} like{G3664} unto gold{G5557}, or{G2228} silver{G696}, or{G2228} stone{G3037}, graven{G5480} by art{G5078} and{G2532} man's{G444} device{G1761}.
1 Cor 8:4 : 4 As concerning{G4012} therefore{G3767} the eating{G1035} of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols{G1494}, we know{G1492}{(G5758)} that{G3754} an idol{G1497} is nothing{G3762} in{G1722} the world{G2889}, and{G2532} that{G3754} there is none{G3762} other{G2087} God{G2316} but{G1508} one{G1520}.

We{G2249} also{G2532} are{G2070}{(G5748)} men{G444} of like passions{G3663} with you{G5213}, and preach{G2097}{(G5734)} unto you{G5209} that ye should turn{G1994}{(G5721)} from{G575} these{G5023} vanities{G3152} unto{G1909} the living{G2198}{(G5723)} God{G2316}, which{G3739} made{G4160}{(G5656)} heaven{G3772}, and{G2532} earth{G1093}, and{G2532} the sea{G2281}, and{G2532} all things{G3956} that are therein{G1722}{G846}:
Rev 9:20 : 20 And{G2532} the rest{G3062} of the men{G444} which{G3739} were{G615} not{G3756} killed{G615}{(G5681)} by{G1722} these{G5025} plagues{G4127} yet{G3777} repented{G3340}{(G5656)} not{G3777} of{G1537} the works{G2041} of their{G846} hands{G5495}, that{G3363} they should{G4352} not{G3363} worship{G4352}{(G5661)} devils{G1140}, and{G2532} idols{G1497} of gold{G5552}, and{G2532} silver{G693}, and{G2532} brass{G5470}, and{G2532} stone{G3035}, and{G2532} of wood{G3585}: which{G3739} neither{G3777} can{G1410}{(G5736)} see{G991}{(G5721)}, nor{G3777} hear{G191}{(G5721)}, nor{G3777} walk{G4043}{(G5721)}:

Jer 10:14-15 : 14 Every man{H120} is brutish{H1197}{(H8738)} in his knowledge{H1847}: every founder{H6884}{(H8802)} is confounded{H3001}{(H8689)} by the graven image{H6459}: for his molten image{H5262} is falsehood{H8267}, and there is no breath{H7307} in them. 15 They are vanity{H1892}, and the work{H4639} of errors{H8595}: in the time{H6256} of their visitation{H6486} they shall perish{H6}{(H8799)}.
Deut 4:28 : 28 And there ye shall serve{H5647}{(H8804)} gods{H430}, the work{H4639} of men's{H120} hands{H3027}, wood{H6086} and stone{H68}, which neither see{H7200}{(H8799)}, nor hear{H8085}{(H8799)}, nor eat{H398}{(H8799)}, nor smell{H7306}{(H8686)}.
Ps 115:4-8 : 4 Their idols{H6091} are silver{H3701} and gold{H2091}, the work{H4639} of men's{H120} hands{H3027}. 5 They have mouths{H6310}, but they speak{H1696}{(H8762)} not: eyes{H5869} have they, but they see{H7200}{(H8799)} not: 6 They have ears{H241}, but they hear{H8085}{(H8799)} not: noses{H639} have they, but they smell{H7306}{(H8686)} not: 7 They have hands{H3027}, but they handle{H4184}{(H8686)} not: feet{H7272} have they, but they walk{H1980}{(H8762)} not: neither speak{H1897}{(H8799)} they through their throat{H1627}. 8 They that make{H6213}{(H8802)} them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth{H982}{(H8802)} in them.

Jer 10:3-6 : 3 For the customs{H2708} of the people{H5971} are vain{H1892}: for one cutteth{H3772}{(H8804)} a tree{H6086} out of the forest{H3293}, the work{H4639} of the hands{H3027} of the workman{H2796}, with the axe{H4621}. 4 They deck{H3302}{(H8762)} it with silver{H3701} and with gold{H2091}; they fasten{H2388}{(H8762)} it with nails{H4548} and with hammers{H4717}, that it move{H6328}{(H8686)} not. 5 They are upright{H4749} as the palm tree{H8560}, but speak{H1696}{(H8762)} not: they must needs{H5375}{(H8800)} be borne{H5375}{(H8735)}, because they cannot go{H6805}{(H8799)}. Be not afraid{H3372}{(H8799)} of them; for they cannot do evil{H7489}{(H8686)}, neither also is it in them to do good{H3190}{(H8687)}. 6 Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O LORD{H3068}; thou art great{H1419}, and thy name{H8034} is great{H1419} in might{H1369}.
Hos 8:6 : 6 For from Israel{H3478} was it also: the workman{H2796} made{H6213}{(H8804)} it; therefore it is not God{H430}: but the calf{H5695} of Samaria{H8111} shall be broken in pieces{H7616}.
Acts 18:19 : 19 And{G1161} he came{G2658}{(G5656)} to{G1519} Ephesus{G2181}, and{G2548} left{G2641}{(G5627)} them there{G847}: but{G1161} he himself{G846} entered{G1525}{(G5631)} into{G1519} the synagogue{G4864}, and reasoned with{G1256}{(G5675)} the Jews{G2453}.
Acts 19:18-20 : 18 And{G5037} many{G4183} that believed{G4100}{(G5761)} came{G2064}{(G5711)}, and confessed{G1843}{(G5734)}, and{G2532} shewed{G312}{(G5723)} their{G846} deeds{G4234}. 19 Many{G2425} of them also{G1161} which used{G4238}{(G5660)} curious arts{G4021} brought{G4851} their books{G976} together{G4851}{(G5631)}, and burned them{G2618}{(G5707)} before{G1799} all{G3956} men: and{G2532} they counted{G4860}{(G5656)} the price{G5092} of them{G846}, and{G2532} found{G2147}{(G5627)} it fifty{G4002} thousand{G3461} pieces of silver{G694}. 20 So{G3779} mightily{G2596}{G2904} grew{G837}{(G5707)} the word{G3056} of God{G2962} and{G2532} prevailed{G2480}{(G5707)}.
1 Cor 10:19-20 : 19 What{G5101} say I{G5346}{(G5748)} then{G3767}? that{G3754} the idol{G1497} is{G2076}{(G5748)} any thing{G5100}, or{G2228} that{G3754} which is offered in sacrifice to idols{G1494} is{G2076}{(G5748)} any thing{G5100}? 20 But{G235} I say, that{G3754} the things which{G3739} the Gentiles{G1484} sacrifice{G2380}{(G5719)}, they sacrifice{G2380}{(G5719)} to devils{G1140}, and{G2532} not{G3756} to God{G2316}: and{G1161} I would{G2309}{(G5719)} not{G3756} that ye{G5209} should have{G1096}{(G5738)} fellowship{G2844} with devils{G1140}.

1 Cor 16:8-9 : 8 But{G1161} I will tarry{G1961}{(G5692)} at{G1722} Ephesus{G2181} until{G2193} Pentecost{G4005}. 9 For{G1063} a great{G3173} door{G2374} and{G2532} effectual{G1756} is opened{G455}{(G5754)} unto me{G3427}, and{G2532} there are many{G4183} adversaries{G480}{(G5740)}.
Gal 4:8 : 8 Howbeit{G235} then{G5119}{G3303}, when ye knew{G1492}{(G5761)} not{G3756} God{G2316}, ye did service{G1398}{(G5656)} unto them which by nature{G5449} are{G5607}{(G5752)} no{G3361} gods{G2316}.
1 Thess 1:9 : 9 For{G1063} they{G518} themselves{G846} shew{G518}{(G5719)} of{G4012} us{G2257} what manner{G3697} of entering in{G1529} we had{G2192}{(G5719)}{(G5625)}{G2192}{(G5627)} unto{G4314} you{G5209}, and{G2532} how{G4459} ye turned{G1994}{(G5656)} to{G4314} God{G2316} from{G575} idols{G1497} to serve{G1398}{(G5721)} the living{G2198}{(G5723)} and{G2532} true{G228} God{G2316};
