115:1 It does not belong to us, Lord. The praise belongs to you because of your love and loyalty.
115:2 Why do the nations ask, “Where is their God?”
115:3 Our God is in heaven. He does what he wants.
115:4 Their idols are made of silver and gold. They are made by human hands.
115:5 They have mouths, but they cannot speak. They have eyes, but they cannot see.
115:6 They have ears, but they cannot hear. They have noses, but they cannot smell.
115:7 They have hands, but they cannot feel. They have feet, but they cannot walk. And no sounds come from their throats.
115:8 The people who make idols and trust them are all like them.
115:9 Family of Israel, trust the Lord. He is your helper and your protection.
115:10 Family of Aaron, trust the Lord. He is your helper and your protection.
115:11 You people who fear the Lord should trust him. He is your helper and your protection.
115:12 The Lord remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the family of Israel. He will bless the family of Aaron.
115:13 The Lord will bless those who fear him, from the smallest to the greatest.
115:14 May the Lord give you many children. And may he give them children also.
115:15 May the Lord bless you. He made heaven and earth.
115:16 Heaven belongs to the Lord. But he gave the earth to people.
115:17 Dead people do not praise the Lord. Those in the grave are silent.
115:18 But we will praise the Lord now and forever. Praise the Lord!
