1 N ot to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.

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

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

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

5 T hey have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.

6 T hey have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.

7 T hey have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.

8 T hose who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

9 I srael, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

10 H ouse of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

11 Y ou who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

12 Y ahweh remembers 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 Yahweh, both small and great.

14 M ay Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children.

15 B lessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

16 T he heavens are the heavens of Yahweh; but the earth has he given to the children of men.

17 T he dead don’t praise Yah, neither any who go down into silence;

18 B ut we will bless Yah, from this time forward and forever more. Praise Yah!
