Psalms 115
1 Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your steadfast love and your faithfulness.
2 Why do the nations say, “Where is their God?”
3 Our God is in the heavens; he does whatever he pleases.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands.
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see.
6 They have ears, but they do not hear; they have noses, but they do not smell.
7 They have hands, but they cannot feel; they have feet, but they cannot walk; no sound comes from their throats.
8 Those who make them will become like them, as will all who trust in them.
9 Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
12 The LORD has remembered us and will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
13 He will bless those who fear the LORD, both the small and the great.
14 May the LORD increase you, 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 the earth he gave to human beings.
17 It is not the dead who praise the LORD, nor those who go down into silence.
18 But we will praise the LORD from now on and forever. Hallelujah!
