God is to be blessed for his blessing Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to Your name be the glory, because of Your loving devotion, because of Your faithfulness Not to us, O LORD, not to us This phrase begins with a profound declaration of humility and self-denial.

In Hebrew, the word for "LORD" is "YHWH," the sacred and personal name of God, which signifies His eternal and self-existent nature. This invocation of God's name sets the tone for the entire verse, reminding the reader of God's sovereignty and the proper posture of worship—one that is centered on God rather than human achievement. but to Your name be the glory because of Your loving devotion because of Your faithfulness Mercy . . . truth . . .--Both a distinct reference to the covenant.
