115:1 Not to us, O LORD, not to us! But to your name bring honor, for the sake of your loyal love and faithfulness.
115:2 Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?"
115:3 Our God is in heaven! He does whatever he pleases!
115:4 Their idols are made of silver and gold--they are man-made.
115:5 They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see,
115:6 ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell,
115:7 hands, but cannot touch, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot even clear their throats.
115:8 Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them.
115:9 O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector.
115:10 O family of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector.
115:11 You loyal followers of the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector.
115:12 The LORD takes notice of us, he will bless--he will bless the family of Israel, he will bless the family of Aaron.
115:13 He will bless his loyal followers, both young and old.
115:14 May he increase your numbers, yours and your children's!
115:15 May you be blessed by the LORD, the creator of heaven and earth!
115:16 The heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to mankind.
115:17 The dead do not praise the LORD, nor do any of those who descend into the silence of death.
115:18 But we will praise the LORD now and forevermore. Praise the LORD!
