MLV(i)
1 Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, but to your name give glory. Upon your loving kindness and upon your truth's sake.
2 Why should the nations say, Where is their God now? 3 But our God is in the heavens. He has done whatever he pleased.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. 5 They have mouths, but they do not speak. They have eyes, but they do not see. 6 They have ears, but they do not hear. They have noses, but they do not smell. 7 They have hands, but they do not handle. They have feet, but they do not walk, nor do they speak through their throat.
8 Those who make them will be like them. Yes, everyone who trusts in them.
9 O Israel, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield. 10 O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield. 11 You* who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah. He is their help and their shield.
12 Jehovah has 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 those who fear Jehovah, both small and great. 14 Jehovah increase you* more and more, you* and your* sons.
15 Blessed are you* of Jehovah who made heaven and earth.
16 The heavens are the heavens of Jehovah, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.
17 The dead do not praise Jehovah, nor any who go down into silence, 18 but we will praise Jehovah from this time forth and everlasting.
Praise Jehovah.
