Psalms 115

1 Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth's sake.

Not to us, Jehovah, not to us, but to your name be the glory, for your loving kindness and for your faithfulness.

2 Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?

Why should the nations say, "Where is their God, now?"

3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.

But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.

4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

5 They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;

They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.

6 They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;

They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.

7 They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.

They have hands, but they do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.

8 They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.

Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

9 O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.

Israel, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

10 House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.

House of Aaron, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

11 Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.

You who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

12 Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;

Jehovah remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.

He will bless those who fear Jehovah, both small and great.

14 Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.

May Jehovah increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.

Blessed are you by Jehovah, who made heaven and earth.

16 The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.

The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; but the earth has he given to the descendants of Adam.

17 The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;

The dead do not praise JAH, neither any who go down into silence;

18 But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!

But we will bless JAH, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise JAH.
