115:1 Not to us, Lord, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
115:2 Why do the nations say, “Where is their God?”
115:3 Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
115:4 But their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.
115:5 They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
115:6 They have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell.
115:7 They have hands, but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk, nor can they utter a sound with their throats.
115:8 Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them.
115:9 All you Israelites, trust in the Lord - he is their help and shield.
115:10 House of Aaron, trust in the Lord - he is their help and shield.
115:11 You who fear him, trust in the Lord - he is their help and shield.
115:12 The Lord remembers us and will bless us: He will bless his people Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron,
115:13 he will bless those who fear the Lord - small and great alike.
115:14 May the Lord cause you to flourish, both you and your children.
115:15 May you be blessed by the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
115:16 The highest heavens belong to the Lord, but the earth he has given to mankind.
115:17 It is not the dead who praise the Lord, those who go down to the place of silence;
115:18 it is we who extol the Lord, both now and forevermore. Praise the Lord.* / *Hebrew Hallelu Yah
