| Chapter 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.
