Psalms 115

1Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, But unto thy nameH8034 giveH5414 gloryH3519, For thy lovingkindness, and for thy truth’s sake.2Wherefore should the nationsH1471 sayH559, WhereH346 is now their GodH430?3But our GodH430 is in the heavensH8064: He hath done whatsoever he pleasedH2654.4Their idolsH6091 are silverH3701 and goldH2091, The workH4639 of men’sH120 handsH3027.5They have mouthsH6310, but they speakH1696 not; EyesH5869 have they, but they seeH7200 not;6They have earsH241, but they hearH8085 not; Noses have they, but they smellH7306 not;7They have handsH3027, but they handle not; FeetH7272 have they, but they walkH1980 not; Neither speak they through their throatH1627.8They that makeH6213 them shall beH1961 like unto them; Yea, every one that trusteth in them.9O IsraelH3478, trustH982 thou in Jehovah: He is their helpH5828 and their shieldH4043.10O houseH1004 of AaronH175, trustH982 ye in Jehovah: He is their helpH5828 and their shieldH4043.11Ye that fearH3373 Jehovah, trustH982 in Jehovah: He is their helpH5828 and their shieldH4043.12Jehovah hath been mindful of us; he will blessH1288 us: He will blessH1288 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478; He will blessH1288 the houseH1004 of AaronH175.13He will blessH1288 them that fearH3373 Jehovah, Both smallH6996 and greatH1419.14Jehovah increaseH3254 you more and more, You and your children.15BlessedH1288 are ye of Jehovah, Who madeH6213 heavenH8064 and earthH776.16The heavensH8064 are the heavensH8064 of Jehovah; But the earthH776 hath he givenH5414 to the children of menH120.17The deadH4191 praiseH1984 not Jehovah, Neither any that goH3381 down into silenceH1745;18But we will blessH1288 Jehovah From this time forth and for evermore. PraiseH1984 ye Jehovah.
