“Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.”
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands. The contrast emerges: foreign gods are mere human artifacts ('silver and gold,' 'work of human hands'), suggesting artificiality and powerlessness. This verse portrays idols as humanly manufactured and therefore limited.
