Psalms 115
1 Not to us, O Lord, not to us; but to thy name give glory.
Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth's sake.
2 For thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake: lest the gentiles should say: Where is their God?
Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?
3 But our God is in heaven: he hath done all things whatsoever he would.
But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.
4 The idols of the gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
5 They have mouths and speak not: they have eyes and see not.
They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
6 They have ears and hear not: they have noses and smell not.
They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;
7 They have hands and feel not: they have feet and walk not: neither shall they cry out through their throat.
They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.
8 Let them that make them become like unto them: and all such as trust in them.
They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
9 The house of Israel hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
10 The house of Aaron hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
11 They that fear the Lord hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
12 The Lord hath been mindful of us, and hath blessed us. He hath blessed the house of Israel: he hath blessed the house of Aaron.
Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;
13 He hath blessed all that fear the Lord, both little and great.
He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.
14 May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your children.
Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.
15 Blessed be you of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
16 The heaven of heaven is the Lord’s: but the earth he has given to the children of men.
The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord: nor any of them that go down to hell. (questioned)
The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;
18 But we that live bless the Lord: from this time now and for ever.
But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!
