• 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!
