Psalm 115 ~ Psalm 115

picture

1 L et honor be given to Your name and not to us, O Lord, not to us. Because You are loving and kind and faithful.

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

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

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

3 B ut our God is in the heavens. He does whatever He wants to do.

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

4 T heir gods are silver and gold, the work of human 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 come out of their mouths.

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 and trust them will be like them.

They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.

9 O Israel, trust in the Lord. He is their help and safe-covering.

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

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord. He is their help and safe-covering.

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

11 Y ou who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord. He is their help and safe-covering.

Ye that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield.

12 T he Lord has remembered us and will make good come to us. He will make good come to the house of Israel. He will make good come to the house of Aaron.

Jehovah 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 make good come to those who fear the Lord, both the small and the great.

He will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great.

14 M ay the Lord make your numbers grow, both you and your children.

Jehovah increase you more and more, You and your children.

15 M ay you be given good things by the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.

Blessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth.

16 T he heavens belong to the Lord. But He has given the earth to the children of men.

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

17 T he dead do not praise the Lord. Neither do those who go down into the quiet place.

The dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence;

18 B ut we will give honor and thanks to the Lord, now and forever. Praise the Lord!

But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah.
