[1]Not to us, O Jehovah, not to us, But to Thy name give honour, For Thy kindness, for Thy truth.
[2]Why do the nations say, `Where, pray, [is] their God.
[3]And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He hath pleased He hath done.
[4]Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man's hands,
[5]A mouth they have, and they speak not, Eyes they have, and they see not,
[6]Ears they have, and they hear not, A nose they have, and they smell not,
[7]Their hands, but they handle not, Their feet, and they walk not;
[8]Nor do they mutter through their throat, Like them are their makers, Every one who is trusting in them.
[9]O Israel, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.'
[10]O house of Aaron, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.'
[11]Ye fearing Jehovah, trust in Jehovah, `Their help and their shield [is] He.'
[12]Jehovah hath remembered us, He blesseth, He blesseth the house of Israel, He blesseth the house of Aaron,
[13]He blesseth those fearing Jehovah, The small with the great.
[14]Jehovah addeth to you, to you, and to your sons.
[15]Blessed [are] ye of Jehovah, maker of heaven and earth,
[16]The heavens -- the heavens [are] Jehovah's, And the earth He hath given to sons of men,
[17]The dead praise not Jah, Nor any going down to silence.
[18]And we, we bless Jah, From henceforth, and unto the age. Praise ye Jah!
