Psalms 115

1 Not to us, Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your kindness’ and faithfulness’ sake.

Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, but to thy name give glory. For thy loving kindness, and for thy truth's sake.

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

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

3 Our God he is in heaven; whatever he wishes, he does.

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

4 Their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.

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

5 They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see.

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

6 They have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell.

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

7 They have hands, but cannot feel; they have feet, but cannot walk: no sound comes from their throats.

They have hands, but they handle not. They have feet, but they walk not, nor do they speak through their throat.

8 Their makers become like them, so do all who trust in them.

Those who make them shall be like them. Yea, everyone who trusts in them.

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

O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

10 House of Aaron, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.

O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

11 You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord he is their help and their shield.

Ye who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.

12 The Lord, mindful of us, will bless us: he will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron.

Jehovah has been mindful of us. He will bless, he will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

13 He will bless those who fear the Lord, the small and the great together.

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

14 May the Lord add to your numbers to you and to your children.

Jehovah increase you more and more, you and your sons.

15 Blessed be you of the Lord, creator of heaven and earth.

Blessed are ye of Jehovah who made heaven and earth.

16 The heavens are the heavens of the Lord, but the earth has he given to people.

The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.

17 The dead cannot praise the Lord, nor those who go down into silence.

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

18 But we will bless the Lord from now and for evermore. Hallelujah.

but we will bless Jehovah from this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.
