Psalms 115

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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