Psalms 115:1-13 ▼

1 Not to us, O YHWH, not to us, || But to Your Name give glory, || For Your kindness, for Your truth.

2 Why do the nations say, “Where, pray, [is] their God?”

3 And our God [is] in the heavens, || All that He has pleased He has done.

4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man’s hands,

5 They have a mouth, and they do not speak, || They have eyes, and they do not see,

6 They have ears, and they do not hear, || They have a nose, and they do not smell,

7 Their hands, but they do not handle, || Their feet, and they do not walk;

8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, || Their makers are like them, || Everyone who is trusting in them.

9 O Israel, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

10 O house of Aaron, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

11 You fearing YHWH, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”

12 YHWH has remembered us, He blesses, || He blesses the house of Israel, || He blesses the house of Aaron,

13 He blesses those fearing YHWH, || The small with the great.
