Psalms 115

1 Not to us, LORD,1 not to us, 2 Why should the nations say,
“Where is their God, now?”
3 But our God is in the heavens. 4 Their idols are silver and gold, 5 They have mouths, but they don’t speak. 6 They have ears, but they don’t hear. 7 They have hands, but they don’t feel. 8 Those who make them will be like them;
yes, everyone who trusts in them.
9 Israel, trust in the LORD! 10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! 11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! 12 The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. 13 He will bless those who fear the LORD,
both small and great.
14 May the LORD increase you more and more, 15 Blessed are you by the LORD, 16 The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, 17 The dead don’t praise the LORD,2 18 but we will bless the LORD,3
