1 Don't give glory to us, O LORD. Don't give glory to us. Instead, give glory to your name because of your mercy and faithfulness. Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness! Not to us, LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory, because of your love and faithfulness.
2 Why should other nations say, |Where is their God?| Why should the nations say, “Where is their God?” Why do the nations say, “Where is their God?”
3 Our God is in heaven. He does whatever he wants. Our God is in the heavens; he does all that he pleases. Our God is in heaven; he does whatever pleases him.
4 Their idols are made of silver and gold. They were made by human hands. Their idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands. But their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.
5 They have mouths, but they cannot speak. They have eyes, but they cannot see. They have mouths, but do not speak; eyes, but do not see. They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
6 They have ears, but they cannot hear. They have noses, but they cannot smell. They have ears, but do not hear; noses, but do not smell. They have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell.
7 They have hands, but they cannot feel. They have feet, but they cannot walk. They cannot [even] make a sound with their throats. 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 Those who make idols end up like them. So does everyone who trusts 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.
9 Israel, trust the LORD. He is your helper and your shield. O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield. All you Israelites, trust in the LORD— he is their help and shield.
10 Descendants of Aaron, trust the LORD. He is your helper and your shield. O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield. House of Aaron, trust in the LORD— he is their help and shield.
11 If you fear the LORD, trust the LORD. He is your helper and your shield. You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield. You who fear him, trust in the LORD— he is their help and shield.
12 The LORD, who is [always] thinking about us, will bless us. He will bless the descendants of Israel. He will bless the descendants 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 those who fear the LORD, from the least important to the most important. 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 May the LORD continue to bless you and 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 You will be blessed by the LORD, the maker of heaven and 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 highest heaven belongs to the LORD, but he has given the earth to the descendants of Adam. 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 Those who are dead do not praise the LORD, nor do those who go into the silence [of the grave]. 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 thank the LORD now and forever. 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.
