Psalms 115

¹ Not to us, LORD, not to us but to your name give glory because of your faithfulness and love.

² Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?"

³ Our God is in heaven; whatever God wills is done.

⁴ Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands.

⁵ They have mouths but do not speak, eyes but do not see.

⁶ They have ears but do not hear, noses but do not smell.

⁷ They have hands but do not feel, feet but do not walk, and no sound rises from their throats.

⁸ Their makers shall be like them, all who trust in them.

⁹ The house of Israel trusts in the LORD, who is their help and shield.

¹⁰ The house of Aaron trusts in the LORD, who is their help and shield.

¹¹ Those who fear the LORD trust in the LORD, who is their help and shield.

¹² The LORD remembers us and will bless us, will bless the house of Israel, will bless the house of Aaron,

¹³ Will bless those who fear the LORD, small and great alike.

¹⁴ May the LORD increase your number, you and your descendants.

¹⁵ May you be blessed by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.

¹⁶ The heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth is given to us.

¹⁷ The dead do not praise the LORD, all those gone down into silence.

¹⁸ It is we who bless the LORD, both now and forever. Hallelujah!
