Glory be to your name

(Psalm 135:1-21)
1
Not to us, O Lord, not to us; but to thy name give glory.
2
For thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake: lest the gentiles should say: Where is their God?
3
But our God is in heaven: he hath done all things whatsoever he would.
4
The idols of the gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.
5
They have mouths and speak not: they have eyes and see not.
6
They have ears and hear not: they have noses and smell not.
7
They have hands and feel not: they have feet and walk not: neither shall they cry out through their throat.
8
Let them that make them become like unto them: and all such as trust in them.
9
The house of Israel hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
10
The house of Aaron hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
11
They that fear the Lord hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.
12
The Lord hath been mindful of us, and hath blessed us. He hath blessed the house of Israel: he hath blessed the house of Aaron.
13
He hath blessed all that fear the Lord, both little and great.
14
May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your children.
15
Blessed be you of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.
16
The heaven of heaven is the Lord’s: but the earth he has given to the children of men.
17
The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord: nor any of them that go down to hell.
18
But we that live bless the Lord: from this time now and for ever.

Glory be to your name

(Psalm 135:1-21)
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.
11
You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield.
12
The LORD remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.
13
He will bless those who fear the LORD, both small and great.
14
May the LORD increase you more and more, you and your children.
15
Blessed are you by the LORD, who made heaven and earth.
16
The heavens are the LORD’s heavens, but he has given the earth to the children of men.
17
The dead don’t praise the LORD, nor any who go down into silence,
18
but we will bless the LORD, from this time forward and forever more. Praise the LORD!
