Psalms 115

1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.

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

2 Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God.

Why should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.

But our God is in the heavens: he has done whatever he has pleased.

4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,

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

5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,

They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

6 Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not,

They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;

They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.

8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.

They that make them are like to them; so is every one that trusts in them.

9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'

O Israel, trust you in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'

O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

11 Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'

You that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

12 Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron,

The LORD has been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.

He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.

14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.

The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

You are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

16 The heavens — the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,

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

17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.

The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

18 And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah!

But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for ever more. Praise the LORD.
