| Chapter 115 |
1 | Not unto us, O Jehovah, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy loving-kindness and for thy truth's sake.
|
2 | Wherefore should the nations say, Where then is their God?
|
3 | But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he pleased.
|
4 | Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands:
|
5 | They have a mouth, and they speak not; eyes have they, and they see not;
|
6 | They have ears, and they hear not; a nose have they, and they smell not;
|
7 | They have hands, and they handle not; feet have they, and they walk not; they give no sound through their throat.
|
8 | They that make them are like unto them, -- every one that confideth in them.
|
9 | O Israel, confide thou in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
|
10 | House of Aaron, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
|
11 | Ye that fear Jehovah, confide in Jehovah: he is their help and their shield.
|
12 | Jehovah hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;
|
13 | He will bless them that fear Jehovah, both the small and the great.
|
14 | Jehovah will add unto you more, unto you and unto your children.
|
15 | Ye are blessed of Jehovah, who made the heavens and the earth.
|
16 | The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
|
17 | The dead praise not Jah, neither any that go down into silence;
|
18 | But we will bless Jah from this time forth and for evermore. Hallelujah!
