Psalms 115

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

Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your mercy, and for your truth’s sake.

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

Why should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

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

But our God is in the heavens: he has done whatever he has pleased.

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

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

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

They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

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

They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

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

They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.

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

They that make them are like to them; so is every one that trusts in them.

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

O Israel, trust you in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

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

O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

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

You that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

12 Yahweh, hath remembered us, he will bless—He will bless the house of Israel, He will bless 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 bless them who revere Yahweh, the small with the great.

He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.

14 Yahweh multiply you, You, and your children.

The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

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

You are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

16 As for the heavens, the heavens, belong to Yahweh, but the earth, hath he given to the 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, cannot praise Yah, nor any that go down into silence;

The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

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

But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for ever more. Praise the LORD.
