Psalms 115
1 Not to us, O YHWH, not to us, But to Your Name give glory, For Your kindness, for Your truth.
Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your mercy, and for your truth’s sake.
2 Why do the nations say, “Where, pray, [is] their God?”
Why should the heathen say, Where is now their God?
3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He has pleased He has done.
But our God is in the heavens: he has done whatever he has pleased.
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man’s hands,
Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
5 They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,
They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
6 They have ears, and they do not hear, They have a nose, and they do not smell,
They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
7 Their hands, but they do not handle, Their feet, and they do not walk;
They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.
They that make them are like to them; so is every one that trusts in them.
9 O Israel, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
O Israel, trust you in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
11 You fearing YHWH, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
You that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.
12 YHWH has remembered us, He blesses, He blesses the house of Israel, He blesses 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 blesses those fearing YHWH, The small with the great.
He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
14 YHWH adds to you—to you and to your sons.
The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Blessed [are] you of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth,
You are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
16 The heavens—the heavens [are] YHWH’s, And He has given the earth to sons 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 do not praise YAH, Nor any going down to silence.
The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.
18 And we, we bless YAH, From now on, and for all time. Praise YAH!
But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for ever more. Praise the LORD.
