Psalms 115

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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