115 Don’t give glory to us, O Lord.
Don’t give glory to us.
Instead, give glory to your name
because of your mercy and faithfulness.
² Why should other nations say, “Where is their God?”
³ Our God is in heaven.
He does whatever he wants.
⁴ Their idols are made of silver and gold.
They were made by human hands.^[a]
5 They have mouths, but they cannot speak.
They have eyes, but they cannot see.
⁶ They have ears, but they cannot hear.
They have noses, but they cannot smell.
⁷ They have hands, but they cannot feel.
They have feet, but they cannot walk.
They cannot ⌞even⌟ make a sound with their throats.
⁸ Those who make idols end up like them.
So does everyone who trusts them.

⁹ Israel, trust the Lord.
He is your helper and your shield.
¹⁰ Descendants of Aaron, trust the Lord.
He is your helper and your shield.
¹¹ If you fear the Lord, trust the Lord.
He is your helper and your shield.

¹² The Lord, who is ⌞always⌟ thinking about us, will bless us.
He will bless the descendants of Israel.
He will bless the descendants of Aaron.
¹³ He will bless those who fear the Lord,
from the least important to the most important.
¹⁴ May the Lord continue to bless you and your children.
¹⁵ You will be blessed by the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth.
¹⁶ The highest heaven belongs to the Lord,
but he has given the earth to the descendants of Adam.
¹⁷ Those who are dead do not praise the Lord,
nor do those who go into the silence ⌞of the grave⌟.
¹⁸ But we will thank the Lord now and forever.

Hallelujah!
