Psalms 115

Thomson(i) 1 Not unto us, Lord; not unto us. But to thy name only give the glory: for thy mercy and for thy truth. 2 Perhaps the nations may say, Where is their God? 3 Our God is in heaven and on earth: all that he willed, he hath done. 4 The idols of the nations are silver and gold; the workmanship of men's hands. 5 They have a mouth but cannot speak: though they have eyes, they cannot see. 6 Ears they have, but they cannot hear: having nostrils they cannot smell. 7 They have hands but they cannot feel: They have feet, but they cannot walk: nor can they utter a sound with their throat. 8 Let them who make them be like them; and all who have trusted in them. 9 The house of Israel have trusted in the Lord: he is their helper and protector. 10 The house of Aaron have trusted in the Lord; he is their helper and protector. 11 They who fear the Lord have trusted in him: he is their helper and protector. 12 The Lord hath remembered us and blessed us: he hath blessed the house of Israel: he hath blessed the house of Aaron: 13 he hath blessed them, who fear the Lord, both small and great. 14 May the Lord add to you more and more; to you and to your children 15 May you be blessed by the Lord: who made the heaven and the earth. 16 To the Lord belongeth the heaven of heavens: and he hath given the earth to the sons of men. 17 The dead cannot praise thee, O Lord; nor any who go down to the mansion of the dead: 18 but we who are alive will bless the Lord; from this time forth and forever.
