Psalms, Chapter 115

  
1. Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, but to Your name give glory; for Your mercy; because of Your truth.
  
2. Why do the nations say, Where is their God now?
  
3. But our God is in Heaven; He has done all that He has pleased.
  
4. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of man's hands;
  
5. they have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see;
  
6. they have ears, but they do not hear; they have a nose, but they do not smell;
  
7. their hands do not feel; their feet do not walk; they do not mutter through their throat.
  
8. The ones who make them are like them, and everyone trusting in them.
  
9. O Israel, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield.
  
10. O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield.
  
11. You who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield.
  
12. Jehovah remembers 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 Jehovah, the small and the great.
  
14. Jehovah will add on to you; on you and on your sons.
  
15. You are blessed to Jehovah, He who makes heavens and earth.
  
16. The heavens; the heavens are Jehovah's, but He has given the earth to the sons of men.
  
17. The dead do not praise Jehovah, nor all those who go down into silence;
  
18. but we will bless Jehovah, from now on and forever. Praise Jehovah!
