< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name bring honor, for your covenant faithfulness and for your trustworthiness.
耶和華啊，榮耀不要歸與我們， 不要歸與我們； 要因你的慈愛和誠實歸在你的名下！
2 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?”
為何容外邦人說： 他們的上帝在哪裏呢？
3 Our God is in heaven; he does whatever he pleases.
然而，我們的上帝在天上， 都隨自己的意旨行事。
4 The nations' idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
他們的偶像是金的，銀的， 是人手所造的，
5 Those idols have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
有口卻不能言， 有眼卻不能看，
6 they have ears, but they do not hear; they have noses, but they do not smell.
有耳卻不能聽， 有鼻卻不能聞，
7 Those idols have hands, but do not feel; they have feet, but they cannot walk; nor do they speak from their mouths.
有手卻不能摸， 有腳卻不能走， 有喉嚨也不能出聲。
8 Those who make them are like them, as is everyone who trusts in them.
造他的要和他一樣； 凡靠他的也要如此。
9 Israel, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.
以色列啊，你要倚靠耶和華！ 他是你的幫助和你的盾牌。
10 House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh; he is your help and shield.
亞倫家啊，你們要倚靠耶和華！ 他是你們的幫助和你們的盾牌。
11 You who honor Yahweh, trust in him; he is your help and shield.
你們敬畏耶和華的，要倚靠耶和華！ 他是你們的幫助和你們的盾牌。
12 Yahweh takes notice of us and will bless us; he will bless the family of Israel; he will bless the family of Aaron.
耶和華向來眷念我們； 他還要賜福給我們： 要賜福給以色列的家， 賜福給亞倫的家。
13 He will bless those who honor him, both young and old.
凡敬畏耶和華的，無論大小， 主必賜福給他。
14 May Yahweh increase your numbers more and more, yours and your descendants'.
願耶和華叫你們 和你們的子孫日見加增。
15 May you be blessed by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
你們蒙了造天地之耶和華的福！
16 The heavens belong to Yahweh; but the earth he has given to mankind.
天，是耶和華的天； 地，他卻給了世人。
17 The dead do not praise Yahweh, nor do any who go down into silence;
死人不能讚美耶和華； 下到寂靜中的也都不能。
18 But we will bless Yahweh now and forevermore. Praise Yahweh.
但我們要稱頌耶和華， 從今時直到永遠。 你們要讚美耶和華！
