< 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 LORD, not unto us, but unto your name give glory, for your mercy, and for your truth's sake.
2 Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is nowe their God?
Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?
3 But our God is in heauen: he doeth what so euer he will.
But our God is in the heavens: he has done whatsoever he has 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 mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
6 They haue eares and heare not: they haue noses and smelll not.
They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but 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, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they 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; so is every one that trusts in them.
9 O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.

10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.
O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: 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.
All of you that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: 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.
The LORD has been mindful of us: he will bless us; 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 the LORD, both small and great.
14 The Lord will increase his graces towarde you, euen toward you and toward your children.
The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Ye are blessed of the Lord, which made the heauen and the earth.
All of you are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
16 The heauens, euen the heauens are the Lordes: but he hath giuen the earth to the sonnes of men.
The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth has 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 the LORD, 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 the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.
