Psalm 115 Legacy Standard Bible

To Yahweh’s Name Give Glory

115 ^(A)Not to us, O Yahweh, not to us,
But ^(B)to Your name give glory
Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your ^[a]truth.
²^(C)Why should the nations say,
“^(D)Where, now, is their God?”
³But our ^(E)God is in the heavens;
He ^(F)does whatever He pleases.
⁴Their ^(G)idols are silver and gold,
The ^(H)work of man’s hands.
⁵They have mouths, but they ^(I)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;
⁷As for their hands, they do not feel;
As for their feet, they do not walk;
They do not make a sound with their throat.
⁸^(J)Those who make them ^[b]will become like them,
Everyone who trusts in them.

⁹O ^(K)Israel, ^(L)trust in Yahweh;
He is their ^(M)help and their shield.
¹⁰O house of ^(N)Aaron, trust in Yahweh;
He is their help and their shield.
¹¹You who ^[c]^(O)fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh;
He is their help and their shield.
¹²Yahweh ^(P)remembered us; He will bless!
He will bless the house of Israel.
He will bless the house of Aaron.
¹³He will ^(Q)bless those who ^[d]fear Yahweh,
^(R)The small together with the great.
¹⁴May Yahweh ^(S)give you increase,
You and your children.
¹⁵May you be blessed of Yahweh,
^(T)Who made heaven and earth.

¹⁶The heavens are ^(U)the heavens of Yahweh,
But ^(V)the earth He has given to the sons of men.
¹⁷It is not the ^(W)dead that praise Yah,
And it is none of those who go down to ^(X)silence;
¹⁸But as for us, we will ^(Y)bless Yah
From now until forever.
^[e]Praise Yah!
