Psalm 115
|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Not to us, O LORD, not to us,
|
|
|
|
but to your name goes all the glory
|
|
|
|
for your unfailing love and faithfulness.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2. Why let the nations say,
|
|
|
|
"Where is their God?"
|
|
|
|
|
|
3. Our God is in the heavens,
|
|
|
|
and he does as he wishes.
|
|
|
|
|
|
4. Their idols are merely things of silver and gold,
|
|
|
|
shaped by human hands.
|
|
|
|
|
|
5. They have mouths but cannot speak,
|
|
|
|
and eyes but cannot see.
|
|
|
|
|
|
6. They have ears but cannot hear,
|
|
|
|
and noses but cannot smell.
|
|
|
|
|
|
7. They have hands but cannot feel,
|
|
|
|
and feet but cannot walk,
|
|
|
|
and throats but cannot make a sound.
|
|
|
|
|
|
8. And those who make idols are just like them,
|
|
|
|
as are all who trust in them.
|
|
|
|
|
|
9. O Israel, trust the LORD!
|
|
|
|
He is your helper and your shield.
|
|
|
|
|
|
10. O priests, descendants of Aaron, trust the LORD!
|
|
|
|
He is your helper and your shield.
|
|
|
|
|
|
11. All you who fear the LORD, trust the LORD!
|
|
|
|
He is your helper and your shield.
|
|
|
|
|
|
12. The LORD remembers us and will bless us.
|
|
|
|
He will bless the people of Israel
|
|
|
|
and bless the priests, the descendants of Aaron.
|
|
|
|
|
|
13. He will bless those who fear the LORD,
|
|
|
|
both great and lowly.
|
|
|
|
|
|
14. May the LORD richly bless
|
|
|
|
both you and your children.
|
|
|
|
|
|
15. May you be blessed by the LORD,
|
|
|
|
who made heaven and earth.
|
|
|
|
|
|
16. The heavens belong to the LORD,
|
|
|
|
but he has given the earth to all humanity.
|
|
|
|
|
|
17. The dead cannot sing praises to the LORD,
|
|
|
|
for they have gone into the silence of the grave.
|
|
|
|
|
|
18. But we can praise the LORD
|
|
|
|
both now and forever!
|
|
Praise the LORD!
