Psalm 115 - The Scriptures 1998

¹ Not to us, O יהוה, not to us, But to Your Name give esteem, For Your kindness, For Your truth.

² Why should the gentiles say, “Where now is their Elohim?”

³ But our Elohim is in the heavens; Whatever pleased Him, He has done.

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; They make no sound through their throat.

⁸ The ones who make them, shall become like them – All who trust in them.

⁹ O Yisra’ĕ

¹⁰ O house of Aharon, trust in יהוה ; He is their help and their shield.

¹¹ You who fear יהוה, trust in יהוה ; He is their help and their shield.

¹² יהוה  has remembered us; He blesses us; He blesses the house of Yisra’ĕ

¹³ He blesses those who fear יהוה, The small and the great.

¹⁴ יהוה  give you increase more and more, You and your children.

¹⁵ You are blessed by יהוה, Who made the heavens and earth.

¹⁶ The heavens are the heavens of יהוה ; But He has given the earth to the children of men.

¹⁷ The dead do not praise Yah, Nor any going down to silence.

¹⁸ But we, we bless Yah Now and forever. Praise Yah!
