Psalms 115
Reading Psalms chapter 115 in the World English Bible, public-domain text from 2000.
Verses 1–10
1 Not to us, LORD, 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 the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
10 House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
