Psalms 115
|
Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name let glory be given, because of your mercy and your unchanging faith. | Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy name give glory, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth's sake. |
Why may the nations say, Where is now their God? | Wherefore should the nations say, Where is now their God? |
But our God is in heaven: he has done whatever was pleasing to him. | But our God is in the heavens: He hath done whatsoever he pleased. |
Their images are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. | Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. |
They have mouths, but no voice; they have eyes, but they see not; | They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyes have they, but they see not; |
They have ears, but no hearing; they have noses, but no sense of smell; | They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have they, but they smell not; |
They have hands without feeling, and feet without power of walking; and no sound comes from their throat. | They have hands, but they handle not; Feet have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they through their throat. |
Those who make them are like them; and so is everyone who puts his faith in them. | They that make them shall be like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them. |
O Israel, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate. | O Israel, trust thou in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield. |
O house of Aaron, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate. | O house of Aaron, trust ye in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield. |
You worshippers of the Lord, have faith in the Lord: he is their help and their breastplate. | Ye that fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah: He is their help and their shield. |
The Lord has kept us in mind and will give us his blessing; he will send blessings on the house of Israel and on the house of Aaron. | Jehovah hath been mindful of us; he will bless [us]: He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron. |
He will send blessings on the worshippers of the Lord, on the small and on the great. | He will bless them that fear Jehovah, Both small and great. |
May the Lord give you and your children still greater increase. | Jehovah increase you more and more, You and your children. |
May you have the blessing of the Lord, who made heaven and earth. | Blessed are ye of Jehovah, Who made heaven and earth. |
The heavens are the Lord's; but the earth he has given to the children of men. | The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah; But the earth hath he given to the children of men. |
The dead do not give praise to the Lord; or those who go down to the underworld. | The dead praise not Jehovah, Neither any that go down into silence; |
But we will give praise to the Lord now and for ever. Praise be to the Lord. | But we will bless Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. Praise ye Jehovah. Psalm 116 |
