Psalms 115

1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory.

Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, because of your mercy and your truth;

2 Give glory to your mercy and your truth, lest the Gentiles should say, “Where is their God?”

lest at any time the nations should say, Where is their God?

3 But our God is in heaven. All things whatsoever that he has willed, he has done.

But our God has done in heaven and on earth, whatever he has pleased.

4 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.

5 They have mouths, and do not speak; they have eyes, and do not see.

They have a mouth, but they can’t speak; they have eyes, but they can’t see:

6 They have ears, and do not hear; they have noses, and do not smell.

they have ears, but they can’t hear; they have noses, but they can’t smell;

7 They have hands, and do not feel; they have feet, and do not walk. Neither will they cry out with their throat.

they have hands, but they can’t handle; they have feet, but they can’t walk: they can’t speak through their throat.

8 Let those who make them become like them, along with all who trust in them.

Let those that make them become like to them, and all who trust in them.

9 The house of Israel has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.

The house of Israel trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

10 The house of Aaron has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.

The house of Aaron trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

11 Those who fear the Lord have hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.

They that fear the Lord trust in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

12 The Lord has been mindful of us, and he has blessed us. He has blessed the house of Israel. He has blessed the house of Aaron.

The Lord has remembered us, and blessed us: he has blessed the house of Israel, he has blessed the house of Aaron.

13 He has blessed all who fear the Lord, the small with the great.

He has blessed them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

14 May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your sons.

The Lord add [blessings] to you and to your children.

15 Blessed are you by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Blessed are you of the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

16 The heaven of heaven is for the Lord, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.

The heaven of heavens [belongs] to the Lord: but he has given the earth to the sons of men.

17 The dead will not praise you, Lord, and neither will all those who descend into Hell. (questioned)

The dead shall not praise you, O Lord, nor any that go down to Hades.

18 But we who live will bless the Lord, from this time forward, and even forever.

But we, the living, will bless the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
