Psalms 115

1 Lord, not to vs, not to vs; but yyue thou glorie to thi name.

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

2 On thi merci and thi treuthe; lest ony tyme hethene men seien, Where is the God of hem?

Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”

3 Forsothe oure God in heuene; dide alle thingis, whiche euere he wolde.

But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.

4 The symulacris of hethene men ben siluer and gold; the werkis of mennus hondis.

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

5 Tho han mouth, and schulen not speke; tho han iyen, and schulen not se.

They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see.

6 Tho han eeris, and schulen not here; tho han nose thurls, and schulen not smelle.

They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell.

7 Tho han hondis, and schulen not grope; tho han feet, and schulen not go; tho schulen not crye in her throte.

They have hands, but they do not feel. They have feet, but they do not walk, neither do they speak through their throat.

8 Thei that maken tho ben maad lijk tho; and alle that triste in tho.

Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

9 The hous of Israel hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere `of hem, and the defendere of hem.

Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.

10 The hous of Aaron hopide in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.

House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.

11 Thei that dreden the Lord, hopiden in the Lord; he is the helpere of hem, and the defendere of hem.

You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.

12 The Lord was myndeful of vs; and blesside vs. He blesside the hous of Israel; he blesside the hous of Aaron.

The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He blesside alle men that dreden the Lord; `he blesside litle `men with the grettere.

He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.

14 The Lord encreesse on you; on you and on youre sones.

May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Blessid be ye of the Lord; that made heuene and erthe.

Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

16 Heuene of `heuene is to the Lord; but he yaf erthe to the sones of men.

The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.

17 Lord, not deed men schulen herie thee; nether alle men that goen doun in to helle.

The dead do not praise the LORD, nor any who go down into silence,

18 But we that lyuen, blessen the Lord; fro this tyme now and til in to the world.

but we will bless the LORD, from this time forward and forever more. Praise the LORD!
