Psalm 115
1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory,
for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?
3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath
pleased.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they
see not:
6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they
smell not:
7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they
walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that
trusteth in them.
9 O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their
shield.
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their
shield.
11 Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and
their shield.
12 The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will
bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.
13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your
children.
15 Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD's: but the earth hath
he given to the children of men.
17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into
silence.
18 But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for
evermore. Praise the LORD.
