Psalm 115
ISV Parallel HCSB [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
International Standard VersionHolman Christian Standard Bible
1Not to us, LORD, not to us, but to your name be given glory on account of your gracious love and faithfulness.1Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to Your name give glory because of Your faithful love, because of Your truth.
2Why should the nations ask "Where now is their God?"2Why should the nations say," Where is their God?"
3when our God is in the heavens and he does whatever he desires?3Our God is in heaven and does whatever He pleases.
4Their idols are silver and gold, crafted by human hands.4Their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.
5They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see.5They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
6They have ears, but cannot hear; they have noses, but cannot smell.6They have ears but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell.
7They have hands, but cannot touch; feet, but cannot walk; they cannot even groan with their throats.7They have hands but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot make a sound with their throats.
8Those who craft them will become like them, as will all those who trust in them.8Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
9Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their helper and shield.9Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
10House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their helper and shield.10House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
11You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their helper and shield.11You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
12The LORD remembers and blesses us. He will indeed bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.12The LORD remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron;
13He will bless those who fear the LORD, both the important and the insignificant together.13He will bless those who fear the LORD-- small and great alike.
14May the LORD add to your numbers— to you and to your descendants.14May the LORD add to your numbers, both yours and your children's.
15May you be blessed by the LORD, who made the heavens and the earth.15May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
16The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but he gave the earth to human beings.16The heavens are the LORD's, but the earth He has given to the human race.
17Neither can the dead praise the LORD, nor those who go down into the silence of death. 17It is not the dead who praise the LORD, nor any of those descending into the silence of death.
18But we will bless the LORD from now to eternity. Hallelujah!18But we will praise the LORD, both now and forever. Hallelujah!
