115:1  Glorify your name, not ours, O Lord! Cause everyone to praise your loving-kindness and your truth.
115:2  Why let the nations say, “Their God is dead!”
115:3  For he is in the heavens and does as he wishes.
115:4  Their gods are merely man-made things of silver and of gold.
115:5  They can’t talk or see, despite their eyes and mouths!
115:6  Nor can they hear, nor smell,
115:7  nor use their hands or feet, nor speak!
115:8  And those who make and worship them are just as foolish as their idols are.
115:9  O Israel, trust the Lord! He is your helper. He is your shield.
115:10  O priests of Aaron, trust the Lord! He is your helper; he is your shield.
115:11  All of you, his people, trust in him. He is your helper; he is your shield.
115:12  Jehovah is constantly thinking about us, and he will surely bless us. He will bless the people of Israel and the priests of Aaron,
115:13  and all, both great and small, who reverence him.
115:14  May the Lord richly bless both you and your children.
115:15  Yes, Jehovah who made heaven and earth will personally bless you!
115:16  The heavens belong to the Lord, but he has given the earth to all mankind.
115:17  The dead cannot sing praises to Jehovah here on earth,
115:18  but we can! We praise him forever! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
