Psalm 115

To Your Name Be the Glory// Psalm 135:1–21

¹Not to us, O Yahweh, not to us,

but to Your name be the glory,

because of Your loving devotion,

because of Your faithfulness.

²Why should the nations say,

“Where is their God?”

³Our God is in heaven;

He does as He pleases.

⁴Their idols are silver and gold,

made by the hands of men.

• PS 115:4[DEMONIC]Idols have mouths but cannot speak
• PS 115:4[NOTE]IDOLS. They have mouths but cannot speak. Those who make them will be like them, 115:8. You become like what you worship.

⁵They have mouths, but cannot speak;

they have eyes, but cannot see;

⁶they have ears, but cannot hear;

they have noses, but cannot smell;

⁷they have hands, but cannot feel;

they have feet, but cannot walk;

they cannot even clear their throats.

⁸Those who make them become like them,

as do all who trust in them.

⁹O Israel, trust in Yahweh!

He is their help and shield.

¹⁰O house of Aaron, trust in Yahweh!

He is their help and shield.

¹¹You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh!

He is their help and shield.

¹²Yahweh is mindful of us;

He will bless us.

He will bless the house of Israel;

He will bless the house of Aaron;

¹³He will bless those who fear Yahweh—

small and great alike.

¹⁴May Yahweh give you increase,

both you and your children.

¹⁵May you be blessed by Yahweh,

the Maker of heaven and earth.

¹⁶The highest heavens belong to Yahweh,

but the earth He has given to mankind.

¹⁷It is not the dead who praise Yahweh,

nor any who descend into silence.

¹⁸But it is we who will bless Yahweh,

both now and forevermore.

Hallelujah!
