[1] Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.
[2] Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”
[3] But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.
[4] Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
[5] They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.
[6] They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.
[7] They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.
[8] Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.
[9] Israel, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
[10] House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
[11] You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.
[12] Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
[13] He will bless those who fear Yahweh, both small and great.
[14] May Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children.
[15] Blessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.
[16] The heavens are the heavens of Yahweh; but the earth has he given to the children of men.
[17] The dead don’t praise Yah, neither any who go down into silence;
[18] But we will bless Yah, from this time forward and forever more. Praise Yah!
