Salmi 115

NOVA VULGATA	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Non nobis, Domine, non nobis, sed nomini tuo da gloriam super misericordia tua et veritate tua.	1 Not to us, LORD, not to us but to your name give glory because of your faithfulness and love.
2 Quare dicent gentes: “ Ubi est Deus eorum? ”.	2 Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?"
3 Deus autem noster in caelo; omnia, quaecumque voluit, fecit.	3 Our God is in heaven; whatever God wills is done.
4 Simulacra gentium argentum et aurum, opera manuum hominum.	4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands.
5 Os habent et non loquentur, oculos habent et non videbunt.	5 They have mouths but do not speak, eyes but do not see.
6 Aures habent et non audient, nares habent et non odorabunt.	6 They have ears but do not hear, noses but do not smell.
7 Manus habent et non palpabunt, pedes habent et non ambulabunt; non clamabunt in gutture suo.	7 They have hands but do not feel, feet but do not walk, and no sound rises from their throats.
8 Similes illis erunt, qui faciunt ea, et omnes, qui confidunt in eis.	8 Their makers shall be like them, all who trust in them.
9 Domus Israel speravit in Domino: adiutorium eorum et scutum eorum est.	9 The house of Israel trusts in the LORD, who is their help and shield.
10 Domus Aaron speravit in Domino: adiutorium eorum et scutum eorum est.	10 The house of Aaron trusts in the LORD, who is their help and shield.
11 Qui timent Dominum, speraverunt in Domino: adiutorium eorum et scutum eorum est.	11 Those who fear the LORD trust in the LORD, who is their help and shield.
12 Dominus memor fuit nostri et benedicet nobis: benedicet domui Israel, benedicet domui Aaron,	12 The LORD remembers us and will bless us, will bless the house of Israel, will bless the house of Aaron,
13 benedicet omnibus, qui timent Dominum, pusillis cum maioribus.	13 Will bless those who fear the LORD, small and great alike.
14 Adiciat Dominus super vos, super vos et super filios vestros.	14 May the LORD increase your number, you and your descendants.
15 Benedicti vos a Domino, qui fecit caelum et terram.	15 May you be blessed by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
16 Caeli, caeli sunt Domino, terram autem dedit filiis hominum.	16 The heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth is given to us.
17 Non mortui laudabunt te, Domine, neque omnes, qui descendunt in silentium,	17 The dead do not praise the LORD, all those gone down into silence.
18 sed nos, qui vivimus, benedicimus Domino ex hoc nunc et usque in saeculum.	18 It is we who bless the LORD, both now and forever. Hallelujah!
