1 Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, But to Your name give glory, Because of Your mercy, Because of Your truth. |
2 Why should the Gentiles say, "So where is their God?" |
3 But our God is in heaven; He does whatever He pleases. |
4 Their idols are silver and gold, The work of men's hands. |
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak; Eyes they have, but they do not see; |
6 They have ears, but they do not hear; Noses they have, but they do not smell; |
7 They have hands, but they do not handle; Feet they have, but they do not walk; Nor do they mutter through their throat. |
8 Those who make them are like them; So is everyone who trusts in them. |
9 O Israel, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield. |
10 O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield. |
11 You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield. |
12 The LORD has been mindful of 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 the LORD, Both small and great. |
14 May the LORD give you increase more and more, You and your children. |
15 May you be blessed by the LORD, Who made heaven and earth. |
16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S; But the earth He has given to the children of men. |
17 The dead do not praise the LORD, Nor any who go down into silence. |
18 But we will bless the LORD From this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD! |
