But our God is in heaven;
He does whatever He pleases.

Not to us, O Lord, not to us,
But to Your name give glory
Because of Your lovingkindness, because of Your truth and faithfulness.

The heavens are the heavens of the Lord,
But the earth He has given to the children of men.

The dead do not praise the Lord,
Nor do any who go down into silence;

The idols [of the nations] are silver and gold,
The work of man’s hands.

May you be blessed of the Lord,
Who made heaven and earth.

They have ears, but they cannot hear;
They have noses, but they cannot smell;

The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless,
He will bless the house of Israel;
He will bless the house of Aaron.

Those who make them will become like them,
Everyone who trusts in them.

He will bless those who fear and worship the Lord [with awe-inspired reverence and submissive wonder],
Both the small and the great.

You who [reverently] fear the Lord, trust in Lord;
He is their help and their shield.

O Israel, trust and take refuge in the Lord! [Be confident in Him, cling to Him, rely on His word!]
He is their help and their shield.

May the Lord give you [great] increase,
You and your children.

Why should the nations say,
“Where, now, is their God?”

But as for us, we will bless and affectionately and gratefully praise the Lord
From this time forth and forever.
Praise the Lord! (Hallelujah!)

They have mouths, but they cannot speak;
They have eyes, but they cannot see;

They have hands, but they cannot feel;
They have feet, but they cannot walk;
Nor can they make a sound with their throats.

O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord;
He is their help and their shield.
