115:1 Not to us, Lord, not to us— no, but to your own name give glory because of your loyal love and faithfulness!
115:2 Why do the nations say, “Where’s their God now?”
115:3 Our God is in heaven— he can do whatever he wants!
115:4 Their idols are just silver and gold— things made by human hands.
115:5 They have mouths, but they can’t speak. They have eyes, but they can’t see.
115:6 They have ears, but they can’t hear. They have noses, but they can’t smell.
115:7 They have hands, but they can’t feel. They have feet, but they can’t walk. They can’t even make a noise in their throats!
115:8 Let the people who made these idols and all who trust in them become just like them!
115:9 But you, Israel, trust in the Lord! God is their help and shield.
115:10 Trust in the Lord, house of Aaron! God is their help and shield.
115:11 You who honor the Lord, trust in the Lord! God is their help and shield.
115:12 The Lord remembers us and will bless us: God will bless the house of Israel; God will bless the house of Aaron;
115:13 God will bless those who honor the Lord— from the smallest to the greatest.
115:14 May the Lord add to your numbers— both you and your children.
115:15 May you be blessed by the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth!
115:16 The highest heaven belongs to the Lord, but he gave the earth to all people.
115:17 The dead don’t praise the Lord, nor do those who go down to silence.
115:18 But us? We will bless the Lord from now until forever from now! Praise the Lord!
