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.
Lord, not to vs, not to vs; but yyue thou glorie to thi name.
2 Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?
On thi merci and thi treuthe; lest ony tyme hethene men seien, Where is the God of hem?
3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.
Forsothe oure God in heuene; dide alle thingis, whiche euere he wolde.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
The symulacris of hethene men ben siluer and gold; the werkis of mennus hondis.
5 They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
Tho han mouth, and schulen not speke; tho han iyen, and schulen not se.
6 They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;
Tho han eeris, and schulen not here; tho han nose thurls, and schulen not smelle.
7 They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.
Tho han hondis, and schulen not grope; tho han feet, and schulen not go; tho schulen not crye in her throte.
8 They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
Thei that maken tho ben maad lijk tho; and alle that triste in tho.
9 O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
The hous of Israel hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere `of hem, and the defendere of hem.
10 House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
The hous of Aaron hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.
11 Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
Thei that dreden the Lord, hopiden in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.
12 Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;
The Lord was myndeful of vs; and blesside vs. He blesside the hous of Israel; he blesside the hous of Aaron.
13 He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.
He blesside alle men that dreden the Lord; `he blesside litle `men with the grettere.
14 Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.
The Lord encreesse on you; on you and on youre sones.
15 Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
Blessid be ye of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.
16 The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
Heuene of `heuene is to the Lord; but he yaf erthe to the sones of men.
17 The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;
Lord, not deed men schulen herie thee; nether alle men that goen doun in to helle.
18 But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!
But we that lyuen, blessen the Lord; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.
