Psalms 115

Brenton(i) 1 (114:1) Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to thy name give glory, because of thy mercy and thy truth; 2 (114:2) lest at any time the nations should say, Where is their God? 3 (114:3) But our God has done in heaven and on earth, whatsoever he has pleased. 4 (114:4) The idols of the nations are silver and gold, the works of men's hands. 5 (114:5) They have a mouth, but they cannot speak; they have eyes, but they cannot see: 6 (114:6) they have ears, but they cannot hear; they have noses, but they cannot smell; 7 (114:7) they have hands, but they cannot handle; they have feet, but they cannot walk: they cannot speak through their throat. 8 (114:8) Let those that make them become like to them, and all who trust in them. 9 (114:9) The house of Israel trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender. 10 (114:10) The house of Aaron trusts in the Lord: he is their helper and defender. 11 (114:11) They that fear the Lord trust in the Lord: he is their helper and defender. 12 (114:12) The Lord has remembered us, and blessed us: he has blessed the house of Israel, he has blessed the house of Aaron. 13 (114:13) He has blessed them that fear the Lord, both small and great. 14 (114:14) The Lord add blessings to you and to your children. 15 (114:15) Blessed are ye of the Lord, who made the heaven and the earth. 16 (114:16) The heaven of heavens belongs to the Lord: but he has given the earth to the sons of men. 17 (114:17) The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord, nor any that go down to Hades. 18 (114:18) But we, the living, will bless the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.
