< Psalms 115 >
1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory.
Bizi değil, ya RAB, bizi değil, Sevgin ve sadakatin uğruna, Kendi adını yücelt!
2 Give glory to your mercy and your truth, lest the Gentiles should say, “Where is their God?”
Niçin uluslar: “Hani, nerede onların Tanrısı?” desin.
3 But our God is in heaven. All things whatsoever that he has willed, he has done.
Bizim Tanrımız göklerdedir, Ne isterse yapar.
4 The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.
Oysa onların putları altın ve gümüşten yapılmış, İnsan elinin eseridir.
5 They have mouths, and do not speak; they have eyes, and do not see.
Ağızları var, konuşmazlar, Gözleri var, görmezler,
6 They have ears, and do not hear; they have noses, and do not smell.
Kulakları var, duymazlar, Burunları var, koku almazlar,
7 They have hands, and do not feel; they have feet, and do not walk. Neither will they cry out with their throat.
Elleri var, hissetmezler, Ayakları var, yürümezler, Boğazlarından ses çıkmaz.
8 Let those who make them become like them, along with all who trust in them.
Onları yapan, onlara güvenen herkes Onlar gibi olacak!
9 The house of Israel has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
Ey İsrail halkı, RAB'be güven, O'dur yardımcınız ve kalkanınız!
10 The house of Aaron has hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
Ey Harun soyu, RAB'be güven, O'dur yardımcınız ve kalkanınız!
11 Those who fear the Lord have hoped in the Lord. He is their helper and their protector.
Ey RAB'den korkanlar, RAB'be güvenin, O'dur yardımcınız ve kalkanınız!
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.
RAB bizi anımsayıp kutsayacak, İsrail halkını, Harun soyunu kutsayacak.
13 He has blessed all who fear the Lord, the small with the great.
Küçük, büyük, Kendisinden korkan herkesi kutsayacak.
14 May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your sons.
RAB sizi, Sizi ve çocuklarınızı çoğaltsın!
15 Blessed are you by the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Yeri göğü yaratan RAB Sizleri kutsasın.
16 The heaven of heaven is for the Lord, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.
Göklerin öteleri RAB'bindir, Ama yeryüzünü insanlara vermiştir.
17 The dead will not praise you, Lord, and neither will all those who descend into Hell. ()
Ölüler, sessizlik diyarına inenler, RAB'be övgüler sunmaz;
18 But we who live will bless the Lord, from this time forward, and even forever.
Biziz RAB'bi öven, Şimdiden sonsuza dek. RAB'be övgüler sunun!
