| [1]Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth. |
[1]Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give the glory, for thy loving mercy and for thy truth's sake. |
| [2]Why do the nations say, `Where, pray, [is] their God. |
[2]Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is now their God? |
| [3]And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done. |
[3]But our God is in heaven: he doth whatsoever he will. |
| [4]Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands, |
[4]Their idols are silver and gold, even the work of men's hands. |
| [5]A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not, |
[5]They have a mouth and speak not: they have eyes and see not. |
| [6]Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not, |
[6]They have ears and hear not: they have noses and smell not. |
| [7]Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not; |
[7]They have hands and touch not: they have feet and walk not: neither make they a sound with their throat. |
| [8]Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them. |
[8]They that make them are like unto them: so are all that trust in them. |
| [9]O Israel, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
[9]O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: for he is their help and their shield. |
| [10]O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
[10]O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord: for he is their help and their shield. |
| [11]Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.' |
[11]Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: for he is their helper and their shield. |
| [12]Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron, |
[12]The Lord hath been mindful of us: he will bless, he will bless the house of Israel, he will bless the house of Aaron. |
| [13]He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great. |
[13]He will bless them that fear the Lord, both small and great. |
| [14]Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons. |
[14]The Lord will increase his graces toward you, even toward you and toward your children. |
| [15]Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth, |
[15]Ye are blessed of the Lord, which made the heaven and the earth. |
| [16]The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men, |
[16]The heavens, even the heavens are the Lord's: but he hath given the earth to the sons of men. |
| [17]The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence. |
[17]The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into the place of silence. |
| [18]And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah! |
[18]But we will praise the Lord from henceforth and forever. Praise ye the Lord. |
