Psalm 115 ~ Psalm 115

picture

1 N ot unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy name give glory, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth's sake.

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

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

Why do the nations say, `Where, pray, their God.

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

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

4 T heir idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands.

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

5 T hey have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not;

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

6 T hey have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not;

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

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

8 T hey that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

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

9 O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

O Israel, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield He.'

10 O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

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

11 Y e that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield He.'

12 J ehovah hath been mindful of 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 H e will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great.

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

14 J ehovah increase you more and more, You and your children.

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

15 B lessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.

Blessed ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

16 T he heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; But the earth hath he given to the children of men.

The heavens -- the heavens Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,

17 T he dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence;

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

18 B ut we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.

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