< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.
Not unto us, O Yahweh, not unto us, —but, unto thine own Name, give glory, concerning thy lovingkindness, concerning thy faithfulness.
2 Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God.
Wherefore should the nations say, Pray where is their God?
3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.
When, our God, is in the heavens, Whatsoever he pleased, hath he done.
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,
Their idols, are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men, —
5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
A mouth, have they, 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,
Ears, have they, but they hear not, A nose, have they, but they smell not:
7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;
Their hands! but they feel not Their feet! but they walk not, No sound make they in their throat.
8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
Like unto them, shall be they who make them, Every one who trusteth in them.
9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
O Israel! trust thou in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!
10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
O house of Aaron! trust ye in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!
11 Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.'
Ye that revere Yahweh! trust in Yahweh, Their help and their shield, is he!
12 Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron,
Yahweh, hath remembered us, he will bless—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 who revere Yahweh, the small with the great.
14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.
Yahweh multiply you, You, and your children.
15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
Blessed are ye of Yahweh, who made the heavens and the earth:
16 The heavens — the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,
As for the heavens, the heavens, belong to Yahweh, but the earth, hath he given to the sons of men.
17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.
The dead, cannot praise Yah, nor 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 Yah, from henceforth even unto times age-abiding. Praise ye Yah.
