Psalm 115:1-18 - Dead Idols And The Living God

¹ Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, but to Your name give glory, for Your mercy and for Your truth's sake. ² Why should the nations say, Where now is their God? ³ But our God is in Heaven; He has done whatever He has pleased.

⁴ Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands. ⁵ They have mouths, but they do not speak; they have eyes, but they do not see; ⁶ they have ears, but they do not hear; they have noses, but they do not smell; ⁷ they have hands, but they do not handle; they have feet, but they do not walk; they do not mutter through their throat. ⁸ The ones who make them are like them, and everyone who trusts in them.

⁹ O Israel, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield. ¹⁰ O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield. ¹¹ You who fear Jehovah, trust in Jehovah; He is their help and their shield. ¹² Jehovah has 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 those who fear Jehovah, both small and great.

¹⁴ Jehovah shall add on to you, even on you and on your sons. ¹⁵ You are blessed of Jehovah who made the heavens and the earth. ¹⁶ The heavens, even the heavens, are Jehovah's; but the earth He has given to the sons of men. ¹⁷ The dead do not praise Jehovah, nor do any who go down into silence. ¹⁸ But we will bless Jehovah from this time forth and forevermore. Praise Jehovah!
