Psalms Psalm 115

1Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy Name give the glory for thy loving mercy, and for thy truth’s sake.

2Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is now their God?

3But our God is in heaven: he doeth whatsoever he will.

4Their idols are silver and gold, even the work of men’s hands.

5They have a mouth, and speak not: they have eyes, and see not.

6They have ears, and hear not: they have noses and smell not.

7They have hands, and touch not: they have feet, and walk not: neither make they a sound with their throat.

8They that make them are like unto them: so are all that trust in them.

9O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: for he is their help, and their shield.

10O house of Aaron trust ye in the Lord, for he is their help, and their shield.

11Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: for he is their helper, and their shield.

12The Lord hath been mindful of us, he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron.

13He will bless them that fear the Lord, both small and great.

14The Lord will increase his graces toward you, even toward you, and toward your children.

15Ye are blessed of the Lord, which made the heaven and the earth.

16The heavens, even the heavens are the Lord’s: but he hath given the earth to the sons of men.

17The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into the place of silence.

18But we will praise the Lord from henceforth and forever. Praise ye the Lord.
