Proverbs 20:12

King James Version (KJV)
Adam Clarke
Bible Commentary

The hearing ear and the seeing eye - Every good we possess comes from God; and we should neither use our eyes, nor our ears, nor any thing we possess, but in strict subserviency to his will.

Albert Barnes
Notes on the Whole Bible

Not only do we owe the gifts of sight and hearing to Yahweh, but He, being the giver, will also call us to account for them (compare Psalm 94:9).
