1
|
Not unto us, O LORD, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, for thy truth's sake. |
|
|
|
2
|
Wherefore should the heathen say, Where now their God? |
|
|
|
3
|
But our God in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased. |
|
|
|
4
|
Their idols silver and gold, the work of men's hands. |
|
|
|
5
|
They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not: |
|
|
|
6
|
They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not: |
|
|
|
7
|
They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat. |
|
|
|
8
|
They that make them are like unto them; every one that trusteth in them. |
|
|
|
9
|
O Israel, trust thou in the LORD: he their help and their shield. |
|
|
|
10
|
O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he their help and their shield. |
|
|
|
11
|
Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he their help and their shield. |
|
|
|
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 will bless them that fear the LORD, small and great. |
|
|
|
14
|
The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children. |
|
|
|
15
|
Ye blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth. |
|
|
|
16
|
The heaven, the heavens, the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men. |
|
|
|
17
|
The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence. |
|
|
|
18
|
But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD. |
