1Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth' sake.2Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?3But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men' hands.5They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:6They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:7They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.8They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.9O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.10O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.11Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.12The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us ; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.13He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.14The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.15Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.16The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD': but the earth hath he given to the children of men.17The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.18But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.
Psalm 115
English Standard Version
To Your Name Give Glory
1Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness! (Ps 36:5; Isa 48:11; Eze 36:22; Da 9:18)2Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” (Ex 32:12; Nu 14:13; Ps 42:3)3Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases. (Ps 11:4; Ps 135:6; Da 4:35)4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands. (De 4:28; 2Ki 19:18; Ps 135:15; Isa 37:19; Isa 44:10; Jer 10:3; Ac 19:26)5They have mouths, but do not speak; eyes, but do not see. (Isa 46:7; Hab 2:18)6They have ears, but do not hear; noses, but do not smell.7They have hands, but do not feel; feet, but do not walk; and they do not make a sound in their throat.8Those who make them become like them; so do all who trust in them. (Isa 44:9)9O Israel,[1] trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield. (Ps 33:20; Ps 37:3; Ps 62:8; Ps 118:2; Ps 135:19)10O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield. (Ps 3:3; Ps 115:9)11You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield. (Ps 22:23; Ps 103:11; Ps 103:13; Ps 103:17)12The Lord has remembered us; he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron; (Ps 118:2; Ps 135:19)13he will bless those who fear the Lord, both the small and the great. (Ps 112:1; Jer 16:6; Jer 31:34)14May the Lord give you increase, you and your children! (De 1:11)15May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth! (Ge 1:1; Ge 14:19; Ru 2:20; Ps 121:2; Ps 124:8; Ps 134:3; Ps 146:6; Jer 10:11; Ac 14:15; Re 14:7)16The heavens are the Lord’s heavens, but the earth he has given to the children of man.17The dead do not praise the Lord, nor do any who go down into silence. (Ps 6:5; Ps 31:17)18But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the Lord! (Ps 104:35; Ps 113:2)
