| Chapter 115 |
1 |
Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth. --
|
2 |
Why do the nations say, 'Where, pray, [is] their God. --
|
3 |
And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done. --
|
4 |
Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands, --
|
5 |
A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, --
|
6 |
Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not, --
|
7 |
Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not; --
|
8 |
Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them. --
|
9 |
O Israel, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' --
|
10 |
O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' --
|
11 |
Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, 'Their help and their shield [is] He.' --
|
12 |
Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron, --
|
13 |
He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great. --
|
14 |
Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons. --
|
15 |
Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth, --
|
16 |
The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men, --
|
17 |
The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence. --
|
18 |
And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah! --
