Psalms 115:1. Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.

Psalms 115:2 Why do the nations say, `Where, pray, [is] their God.

Psalms 115:3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.

Psalms 115:4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,

Psalms 115:5 A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, Psalms 115:6 Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not, Psalms 115:7 Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;

Psalms 115:8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.

Psalms 115:9. O Israel, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.'

Psalms 115:13 He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.

Psalms 115:14 Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.

Psalms 115:15 Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,

Psalms 115:16 The heavens--the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,

Psalms 115:17 The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.

Psalms 115:18 And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah!
