Glory be to your name

(Psalm 135:1-21)
1
Yahweh, people should praise you alone; they must praise you, not us, because you faithfully love us and always do what you have promised to do.
2
It is not right that other people groups should say about us, “They claim that their God is very powerful, but if that is true, why does he not help them?”
3
Our God is in heaven, and he does whatever he wants!
4
But their idols are only statues made of silver and gold, things that humans have made.
5
Their idols have mouths, but they cannot say anything; they have eyes, but they cannot see anything.
6
They have ears, but they cannot hear anything; they have noses, but they cannot smell anything.
7
They have hands, but they cannot feel anything; they have feet, but they cannot walk, and they cannot even make any sounds in their throats!
8
The people who make those idols are as powerless as those idols, and those who trust in those idols can accomplish nothing, just like their idols!
9
You, my fellow Israelite people, trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and protects you like a shield.
10
You priests, descendants of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is the one who helps you and protects you like a shield.
11
All you who have a reverential respect for Yahweh, trust in him! He is the one who helps you and protects you like a shield.
12
Yahweh has not forgotten us; he will bless us Israelite people! He will bless the priests,
13
and he will bless all those who have a reverential respect for him; he will bless important people and people who are considered to be unimportant, everyone!
14
I wish that Yahweh may give many children to you, my fellow Israelite people, and to your descendants.
15
I wish that Yahweh, the one who made heaven and the earth, may bless all of you!
16
The highest heavens belong to Yahweh, but he gave everything that is on the earth to us people.
17
Dead people are not able to praise Yahweh; when they descend into the place where dead people are, they are unable to speak and cannot praise him.
18
But we who are alive will thank him, now and forever. Praise Yahweh!

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!
