| 1 | Not to us, O LORD, not to us, but to thy name give glory, for the sake of thy steadfast love and thy faithfulness! |
| 2 | Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?" |
| 3 | 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 do not speak; eyes, but do not see. |
| 6 | They have ears, but do not hear; noses, but do not smell. |
| 7 | They have hands, but do not feel; feet, but do not walk; and they do not make a sound in their throat. |
| 8 | Those who make them are like them; so are all who trust in them. |
| 9 | O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and their shield. |
| 10 | O house of Aaron, put your 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 has been mindful of 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 give you increase, you and your children! |
| 15 | May you be blessed by the LORD, who made heaven and earth! |
| 16 | The heavens are the LORD's heavens, but the earth he has given to the sons of men. |
| 17 | The dead do not praise the LORD, nor do any that go down into silence. |
| 18 | But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD! |
| 1 | I love the LORD, because he has heard my voice and my supplications. |
| 2 | Because he inclined his ear to me, therefore I will call on him as long as I live. |
| 3 | The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold on me; I suffered distress and anguish. |
| 4 | Then I called on the name of the LORD: "O LORD, I beseech thee, save my life!" |
| 5 | Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; our God is merciful. |
| 6 | The LORD preserves the simple; when I was brought low, he saved me. |
| 7 | Return, O my soul, to your rest; for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you. |
| 8 | For thou hast delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling; |
| 9 | I walk before the LORD in the land of the living. |
| 10 | I kept my faith, even when I said, "I am greatly afflicted"; |
| 11 | I said in my consternation, "Men are all a vain hope." |
| 12 | What shall I render to the LORD for all his bounty to me? |
| 13 | I will lift up the cup of salvation and call on the name of the LORD, |
| 14 | I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people. |
| 15 | Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of his saints. |
| 16 | O LORD, I am thy servant; I am thy servant, the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast loosed my bonds. |
| 17 | I will offer to thee the sacrifice of thanksgiving and call on the name of the LORD. |
| 18 | I will pay my vows to the LORD in the presence of all his people, |
| 19 | in the courts of the house of the LORD, in your midst, O Jerusalem. Praise the LORD! |
