Psalms 115

1 Not to us, Lord, not to us, but to you all glory should be given, because of your trustworthy love and faithfulness.

Not unto us, O Yahweh, not unto us, —but, unto thine own Name, give glory, concerning thy lovingkindness, concerning thy faithfulness.

2 Why should the heathen nations ask, “Where is your God?”

Wherefore should the nations say, Pray where is their God?

3 Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants.

When, our God, is in the heavens, Whatsoever he pleased, hath he done.

4 Their idols are just things of silver and gold made by human hands.

Their idols, are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men, —

5 They have mouths, but can't speak. They have eyes, but can't see.

A mouth, have they, but they speak not, Eyes, have they, but they see not;

6 They have ears, but can't hear. They have noses, but can't smell.

Ears, have they, but they hear not, A nose, have they, but they smell not:

7 They have hands, but can't feel. They have feet, but can't walk. No sound comes from their throats.

Their hands! but they feel not Their feet! but they walk not, No sound make they in their throat.

8 Those who make idols become just like them, and so does everyone who trusts in them.

Like unto them, shall be they who make them, Every one who trusteth in them.

9 Israel, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.

O Israel! trust thou in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!

10 Descendants of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.

O house of Aaron! trust ye in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!

11 Those who honor the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is the one who helps you and protects you.

Ye that revere Yahweh! trust in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!

12 The Lord keeps us in mind and will be good to us. He will bless Israel, he will bless the descendants of Aaron.

Yahweh, hath remembered us, he will bless—He will bless the house of Israel, He will bless the house of Aaron;

13 The Lord will bless all those who worship him, whoever they are.

He will bless them who revere Yahweh, the small with the great.

14 May the Lord be good to you, you and your children.

Yahweh multiply you, You, and your children.

15 May you be blessed by the Lord who made heaven and earth.

Blessed are ye of Yahweh, who made the heavens and the earth:

16 The heavens belong to the Lord, but he has given the earth to humankind.

As for the heavens, the heavens, belong to Yahweh, but the earth, hath he given to the sons of men.

17 The dead do not praise the Lord, those who have gone down into the silence of the grave.

The dead, cannot praise Yah, nor any that go down into silence;

18 But we the living will always praise the Lord. Praise the Lord!

But, we, will bless Yah, from henceforth even unto times age-abiding. Praise ye Yah.
