< Psalms 115 >

1 Not vnto vs, O Lord, not vnto vs, but vnto thy Name giue the glorie, for thy louing mercie and for thy truethes sake.
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 Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is nowe their God?
Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?
3 But our God is in heauen: he doeth what so euer he will.
But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.
4 Their idoles are siluer and golde, euen the worke of mens hands.
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
5 They haue a mouth and speake not: they haue eyes and see not.
They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
6 They haue eares and heare not: they haue noses and smelll not.
They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;
7 They haue handes and touche not: they haue feete and walke not: neither make they a sound with their throte.
They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.
8 They that make them are like vnto them: so are all that trust in them.
They that make them are like unto them, — every one that confideth in them.
9 O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.
O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.
House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
11 Ye that feare the Lord, trust in the Lord: for he is their helper and their shield.
Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
12 The Lord hath bene mindfull of vs: he will blesse, he will blesse the house of Israel, he will blesse 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 will blesse them that feare the Lord, both small and great.
He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.
14 The Lord will increase his graces towarde you, euen toward you and toward your children.
Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.
15 Ye are blessed of the Lord, which made the heauen and the earth.
Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
16 The heauens, euen the heauens are the Lordes: but he hath giuen the earth to the sonnes of men.
The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 The dead prayse not the Lord, neither any that goe downe into the place of silence.
The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;
18 But we will prayse the Lord from henceforth and for euer. Prayse ye the Lord.
But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!
