Psalm 115

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.

115:2

Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?

115:3

But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.

115:4

Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.

115:5

They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:

115:6

They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:

115:7

They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.

115:8

They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.

115:9

O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

115:10

O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

115:11

Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.

115:12

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.

115:13

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

115:14

The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.

115:15

Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.

115:16

The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.

115:17

The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.

115:18

But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.
