Psalm - 115

picture

1 N ot unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake.

2 W herefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

3 B ut our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.

4 T heir idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

5 T hey have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

6 t hey have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

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

8 T hey that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.

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

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

11 Y e that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.

12 T he Lord hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.

13 H e will bless them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

14 T he Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 Y e are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth.

16 T he heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.

17 T he dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence.

18 B ut we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord.
