Psalms 115

1 Not for our sake, O Lord, not for our sake, but unto thy name give glory, for the sake of thy kindness, for the sake of thy truth.

Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy name give glory, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth’s sake.

2 Wherefore should the nations say, Where now is their God?

Wherefore should the nations say, Where is now their God?

3 Whereas our God is in the heavens: whatsoever he desireth hath he done.

But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever he pleased.

4 Their idols are sliver and gold, the work of the hands of man.

Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men’s hands.

5 A mouth they have, but speak not; eyes they have, but see not;

They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;

6 Ears they have, but hear not; a nose they have, but smell not.

They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not;

7 They have hands, but they touch not; they have feet, but they walk not: nor do they give any utterance by their throat.

They have hands, but they handle not; Feet have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they through their throat.

8 Like them are those that make them, every one that trusteth in them.

They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

9 O Israel, trust thou in the Lord—he is their help and their shield.

O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord—he is their help and their shield.

O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

11 Ye that fear the Lord, trust ye in the Lord—he is their help and their shield.

Ye that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

12 The Lord hath even been mindful of us, he will bless [us]; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;

Jehovah hath 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 bless those that fear the Lord, the small together with the great.

He will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great.

14 May the Lord increase you more and more, you and your children.

Jehovah increase you more and more, You and your children.

15 Blessed are ye of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

Blessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.

16 The heavens are the heavens of the Lord; but the earth hath he 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 Not the dead can praise the Lord, nor all those that go down into the silence [of death].

The dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence;

18 But as for us, we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah.

But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.
