Psalms 115
1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
| לֹא לָנוּ יְהוָה לֹא לָנוּ כִּֽי־לְשִׁמְךָ תֵּן כָּבוֹד עַל־חַסְדְּךָ עַל־אֲמִתֶּֽךָ׃ |
2 Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
| לָמָּה יֹאמְרוּ הַגּוֹיִם אַיֵּה־נָא אֱלֹהֵיהֶֽם׃ |
3 But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
| וֵֽאלֹהֵינוּ בַשָּׁמָיִם כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־חָפֵץ עָשָֽׂה׃ |
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
| עֲֽצַבֵּיהֶם כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב מַעֲשֵׂה יְדֵי אָדָֽם׃ |
5 They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
| פֶּֽה־לָהֶם וְלֹא יְדַבֵּרוּ עֵינַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִרְאֽוּ׃ |
6 They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
| אָזְנַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִשְׁמָעוּ אַף לָהֶם וְלֹא יְרִיחֽוּן׃ |
7 They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
| יְדֵיהֶם ׀ וְלֹא יְמִישׁוּן רַגְלֵיהֶם וְלֹא יְהַלֵּכוּ לֹֽא־יֶהְגּוּ בִּגְרוֹנָֽם׃ |
8 Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
| כְּמוֹהֶם יִהְיוּ עֹשֵׂיהֶם כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־בֹּטֵחַ בָּהֶֽם׃ |
9 Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
| יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּטַח בַּיהוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּא׃ |
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
| בֵּית אַהֲרֹן בִּטְחוּ בַיהוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּא׃ |
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
| יִרְאֵי יְהוָה בִּטְחוּ בַיהוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּא׃ |
12 The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
| יְהוָה זְכָרָנוּ יְבָרֵךְ יְבָרֵךְ אֶת־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל יְבָרֵךְ אֶת־בֵּית אַהֲרֹֽן׃ |
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
| יְבָרֵךְ יִרְאֵי יְהוָה הַקְּטַנִּים עִם־הַגְּדֹלִֽים׃ |
14 May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
| יֹסֵף יְהוָה עֲלֵיכֶם עֲלֵיכֶם וְעַל־בְּנֵיכֶֽם׃ |
15 Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
| בְּרוּכִים אַתֶּם לַיהוָה עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
16 The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.
| הַשָּׁמַיִם שָׁמַיִם לַיהוָה וְהָאָרֶץ נָתַן לִבְנֵי־אָדָֽם׃ |
17 The dead don’t praise the LORD, nor any who go down into silence,
| לֹא הַמֵּתִים יְהַֽלְלוּ־יָהּ וְלֹא כָּל־יֹרְדֵי דוּמָֽה׃ |
18 but we will bless the LORD, from this time forward and forever more. Praise the LORD!
| וַאֲנַחְנוּ ׀ נְבָרֵךְ יָהּ מֵֽעַתָּה וְעַד־עוֹלָם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ |
