Psalms 115

1 Not to us, O YHWH, not to us, But to Your Name give glory, For Your kindness, for Your truth.

Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name be the glory, for your loving kindness and for your faithfulness.

2 Why do the nations say, “Where, pray, [is] their God?”

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

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

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

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 They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,

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

6 They have ears, and they do not hear, They have a nose, and they do not smell,

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

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

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

8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.

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

9 O Israel, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

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

10 O house of Aaron, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

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

11 You fearing YHWH, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

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

12 YHWH has remembered us, He blesses, He blesses the house of Israel, He blesses the house of Aaron,

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

13 He blesses those fearing YHWH, The small with the great.

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

14 YHWH adds to you—to you and to your sons.

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

15 Blessed [are] you of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth,

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

16 The heavens—the heavens [are] YHWH’s, And He has given the earth to sons of men;

The heavens are the heavens of the LORD; but the earth has he given to the descendants of Adam.

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

The dead do not praise the LORD, neither any who go down into silence;

18 And we, we bless YAH, From now on, and for all time. Praise YAH!

But we will bless the LORD, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD.
