| Chapter 115 |
1 | Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth. |
2 | Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God. |
3 | And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done. |
4 | Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands, |
5 | A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, |
6 | Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not, |
7 | Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not; |
8 | Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them. |
9 | O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
10 | O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
11 | Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
12 | Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron, |
13 | He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great. |
14 | Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons. |
15 | Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth, |
16 | The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men, |
17 | The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence. |
18 | And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah! |
