1Not to us, O Lord , not to us, but to your name give glory,[#Ps 96.8; Ezek 36.32; #115.1 Psalms 114—115 are a single psalm in the earliest witnesses]
for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness.
2Why should the nations say,[#Ps 42.3]
“Where is their God?”
3Our God is in the heavens;[#Ps 103.19; 135.6; Dan 4.35]
he does whatever he pleases.
4Their idols are silver and gold,[#Deut 4.28; Ps 135.15–17; Jer 10.3ff]
the work of human hands.
5They have mouths, but they do not speak;
they have eyes, but they do not see.
6They have ears, but they do not hear;
they have noses, but they do not smell.
7They have hands, but they do not feel;
they have feet, but they do not walk;
they make no sound in their throats.
8Those who make them are like them;[#Ps 135.18]
so are all who trust in them.
9O Israel, trust in the Lord ![#Ps 33.20; 118.2–4]
He is their help and their shield.
10O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord !
He is their help and their shield.
11You who fear the Lord , trust in the Lord ![#Ps 135.20]
He is their help and their shield.
12The Lord has been mindful of us; he will bless us;
he will bless the house of Israel;
he will bless the house of Aaron;
13he will bless those who fear the Lord ,
both small and great.
14May the Lord give you increase,[#Deut 1.11]
both you and your children.
15May you be blessed by the Lord ,[#Gen 1.1; 14.19; Ps 96.5]
who made heaven and earth.
16The heavens are the Lord ’s heavens,[#Ps 8.6; 89.11]
but the earth he has given to human beings.
17The dead do not praise the Lord ,[#Ps 6.5; 31.17]
nor do any who go down into silence.
18But we will bless the Lord[#Ps 113.2]
from this time on and forevermore.
Praise the Lord !
