Psalms 115

1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto your name give glory, for your mercy, and for your truth's sake.

Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to thy name give glory, because of thy mercy and thy truth;

2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

lest at any time the nations should say, Where is their God?

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

But our God has done in heaven and on earth, whatsoever he has pleased.

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

The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of men's hands.

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

They have a mouth, but they cannot speak; they have eyes, but they cannot see:

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

they have ears, but they cannot hear; they have noses, but they cannot smell;

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

they have hands, but they cannot handle; they have feet, but they cannot walk: they cannot speak through their throat.

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

Let those that make them become like to them, and all who trust in them.

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

The house of Israel trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

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

The house of Aaron trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

11 All of you that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

They that fear the Lord trust in the Lord: he is their helper and defender.

12 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.

The Lord has remembered us, and blessed us: he has blessed the house of Israel, he has blessed the house of Aaron.

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

He has blessed them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

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

The Lord add [blessings] to you and to your children.

15 All of you are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

Blessed are ye of the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth.

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

The heaven of heavens [belongs] to the Lord: but he has given the earth to the sons of men.

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

The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord, nor any that go down to Hades.

18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.

But we, the living, will bless the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
