picture

1 N ot to us, O Lord, not to us, But to Your name give glory Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth.

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

2 W hy should the nations say, “ Where, now, is their God?”

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

3 B ut our God is in the heavens; He does whatever He pleases.

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

4 T heir idols are silver and gold, The work of man’s hands.

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

5 T hey have mouths, but they cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see;

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

6 T hey have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell;

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

7 T hey have hands, but they cannot feel; They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat.

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

8 T hose who make them will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them.

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

9 O Israel, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.

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.

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

11 Y ou who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield.

Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.

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

The 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 those who fear the Lord, The small together with the great.

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

14 M ay the Lord give you increase, You and your children.

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

15 M ay you be blessed of the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth.

Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth.

16 T he heavens are the heavens of the Lord, But the earth He has given to the sons of men.

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

17 T he dead do not praise the Lord, Nor do any who go down into silence;

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

18 B ut as for us, we will bless the Lord From this time forth and forever. Praise the Lord!

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