| 2 | Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God? | Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” | Why do the nations say, “Where is their God?” | |

| 7 | They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat. | They have hands, but do not feel; feet, but do not walk; and they do not make a sound in their throat. | They have hands, but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk, nor can they utter a sound with their throats. | |
| 8 | They that make them are like unto them, -- every one that confideth in them. | Those who make them become like them; so do all who trust in them. | Those who make them will be like them, and so will all who trust in them. | |

| 12 | Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron; | The LORD has remembered us; he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron; | The LORD remembers us and will bless us: He will bless his people Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron, | |
| 13 | He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great. | he will bless those who fear the LORD, both the small and the great. | he will bless those who fear the LORD— small and great alike. | |
| 14 | Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children. | May the LORD give you increase, you and your children! | May the LORD cause you to flourish, both you and your children. | |
| 15 | Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth. | May you be blessed by the LORD, who made heaven and earth! | May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. | |
| 16 | The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men. | The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but the earth he has given to the children of man. | The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to mankind. | |
| 17 | The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence; | The dead do not praise the LORD, nor do any who go down into silence. | It is not the dead who praise the LORD, those who go down to the place of silence; | |
| 18 | But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah! | But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD! | it is we who extol the LORD, both now and forevermore. Praise the LORD. | |
