Psalm 115:1-18
115 * To us belongs nothing, O Jehovah, to us belongs nothing,+But to your name give glory+According to your loving-kindness, according to your trueness.*+
2 Why should the nations say:+“Where, now, is their God?”+
3 But our God is in the heavens;+Everything that he delighted [to do] he has done.+
4 Their idols are silver and gold,+The work of the hands of earthling man.*+
5 A mouth they have, but they cannot speak;+Eyes they have, but they cannot see;+
6 Ears they have, but they cannot hear.+A nose they have, but they cannot smell.+
7 Hands are theirs, but they cannot feel.+Feet are theirs, but they cannot walk;+They utter no sound with their throat.+
8 Those making them will become just like them,+All those who are trusting in them.+
9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah;+He is their help and their shield.+
10 O house of Aaron, put YOUR trust in Jehovah;+He is their help and their shield.+
11 YOU that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah;+He is their help and their shield.+
12 Jehovah himself has remembered us; he will bless,+He will bless the house of Israel,+He will bless the house of Aaron.+
13 He will bless those fearing Jehovah,+The small ones as well as the great ones.+
14 Jehovah will give increase to YOU,+To YOU and to YOUR sons.+
15 YOU are the ones blessed by Jehovah,+The Maker of heaven and earth.+
16 As regards the heavens, to Jehovah the heavens belong,+But the earth he has given to the sons of men.*+
17 The dead themselves do not praise Jah,*+Nor do any going down into silence.+
18 But we ourselves* will bless Jah*+From now on and to time indefinite.+Praise Jah, YOU people!*+
