Psalms 115
1 Yahweh, people should praise [only] you [MTY]; they must praise you, not us, because you faithfully love us and always do what you have promised to do.
Huwag sa amin, Oh Panginoon, huwag sa amin, kundi sa iyong pangalan ay magbigay kang karangalan, dahil sa iyong kagandahang-loob, at dahil sa iyong katotohanan.
2 It is not right that [RHQ] [other] people-groups should say about us, “[They claim that] their God [is very powerful], but [if that is true], why does he not [help them]?”
Bakit sasabihin ng mga bansa, Saan nandoon ngayon ang kanilang Dios?
3 Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants to!
Nguni't ang aming Dios ay nasa mga langit: kaniyang ginagawa ang kaniyang ibigin.
4 [But] their idols are only [statues made of] silver and gold, things that humans have made.
Ang kanilang mga diosdiosan ay pilak at ginto, yari ng mga kamay ng mga tao.
5 Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say [anything]; they have eyes, but they cannot see [anything].
Sila'y may mga bibig, nguni't sila'y hindi nangagsasalita; mga mata'y mayroon (sila) nguni't hindi (sila) nangakakakita;
6 They have ears, but they cannot hear [anything]; they have noses, but they cannot smell [anything].
Sila'y may mga tainga, nguni't hindi (sila) nangakakarinig; mga ilong ay mayroon (sila) nguni't hindi (sila) nangakakaamoy;
7 They have hands, but they cannot feel [anything]; they have feet, but they cannot walk, and they have throats but cannot [even] make any sounds!
Mayroon silang mga kamay, nguni't hindi (sila) nangakatatangan; mga paa ay mayroon (sila) nguni't hindi (sila) nangakalalakad; ni nangagsasalita man (sila) sa kanilang ngalangala.
8 The people who make those idols are [as powerless] as those idols, and those who trust in those idols [can accomplish nothing], just like their idols!
Ang nagsisigawa sa kanila ay magiging gaya nila; Oo, bawa't tumitiwala sa kanila.
9 You, [my fellow] Israeli people, trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Oh Israel, tumiwala ka sa Panginoon: siya'y kanilang saklolo at kanilang kalasag.
10 You priests [MTY], trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Oh sangbahayan ni Aaron, magsitiwala kayo sa Panginoon: siya'y kanilang saklolo at kanilang kalasag.
11 [All] you who revere Yahweh, trust in him! He is the one who helps you and [protects you like] [MET] a shield.
Kayong nangatatakot sa Panginoon, magsitiwala kayo sa Panginoon; siya'y kanilang saklolo at kanilang kalasag.
12 Yahweh has not forgotten us; he will bless us Israeli people [MTY]! He will bless the priests,
Inalaala tayo ng Panginoon; kaniyang pagpapalain tayo: kaniyang pagpapalain ang sangbahayan ni Israel, kaniyang pagpapalain ang sangbahayan ni Aaron.
13 and he will bless [all] those who revere him; he will bless important [people] and people [who are considered to be] unimportant, [everyone!]
Kaniyang pagpapalain ang nangatatakot sa Panginoon, ang mababa at gayon ang mataas.
14 I desire that Yahweh will give many children to you [my fellow-Israeli people], and to your descendants.
Palalaguin kayo ng Panginoon ng higit at higit, kayo at ang inyong mga anak.
15 I desire that Yahweh, the one who made heaven and the earth, will bless [all of] you!
Pinagpala kayo ng Panginoon, na gumawa ng langit at lupa.
16 The [highest] heavens belong to Yahweh, but he gave [everything that is on] the earth to [us] people.
Ang mga langit ay mga langit ng Panginoon; nguni't ang lupa ay kaniyang ibinigay sa mga anak ng mga tao.
17 Dead [people] are not [able to] praise Yahweh; when they descend into the place where dead people are, they are unable to speak and cannot praise him.
Ang patay ay hindi pumupuri sa Panginoon, ni sinomang nabababa sa katahimikan;
18 But we [who are alive] will thank/praise him, now and forever. Praise Yahweh!
Nguni't aming pupurihin ang Panginoon mula sa panahong ito hanggang sa walang hanggan. Purihin ninyo ang Panginoon.
