< Psalms 115 >

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