1 Samuel 5:3-4
New American Standard Bible
3 When the Ashdodites got up early the next day, behold, (A)Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of the Lord. So they took Dagon and (B)set him back in his place. 4 But when they got up early the next morning, behold, (C)Dagon had fallen on his face to the ground before the ark of the Lord. And the head of Dagon and both palms of his hands were cut off on the threshold; [a]only the torso of Dagon was left.

Isaiah 41:7
New American Standard Bible
7 So the (A)craftsman encourages the (B)smelter,
And he who smooths metal with the hammer encourages him who beats the anvil,
Saying of the soldering, “It is good”;
And he fastens it with nails,
(C)So that it will not totter.
Isaiah 46:7
New American Standard Bible
7 They (A)lift it on the shoulder, carry it,
And set it in its place, and it stands there.
(B)It does not move from its place.
Though one may shout to it, it (C)cannot answer;
It (D)cannot save him from his distress.
