115:1 It does not belong to us, Lord. The glory 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 pleases.
115:4 Their idols are made of silver and gold, the work of 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. No sounds come from their throats.
115:8 People who make idols will be like them, and so will those who trust 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 who respect 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 respect him, from the smallest to the greatest.
115:14 May the Lord give you success, and may he give you and your children success.
115:15 May you be blessed by the Lord, who 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!
