NET BibleHolman Christian Standard Bible
1Not to us, O LORD, not to us! But to your name bring honor, for the sake of your loyal love and faithfulness. 1Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to Your name give glory because of Your faithful love, because of Your truth.
2Why should the nations say, "Where is their God?" 2Why should the nations say," Where is their God?"
3Our God is in heaven! He does whatever he pleases! 3Our God is in heaven and does whatever He pleases.
4Their idols are made of silver and gold--they are man-made. 4Their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands.
5They have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see, 5They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see.
6ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell, 6They have ears but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell.
7hands, but cannot touch, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot even clear their throats. 7They have hands but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot make a sound with their throats.
8Those who make them will end up like them, as will everyone who trusts in them. 8Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
9O Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector. 9Israel, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
10O family of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector. 10House of Aaron, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
11You loyal followers of the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their deliverer and protector. 11You who fear the LORD, trust in the LORD! He is their help and shield.
12The LORD takes notice of us, he will bless--he will bless the family of Israel, he will bless the family of Aaron. 12The LORD remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron;
13He will bless his loyal followers, both young and old. 13He will bless those who fear the LORD-- small and great alike.
14May he increase your numbers, yours and your children's! 14May the LORD add to your numbers, both yours and your children's.
15May you be blessed by the LORD, the creator of heaven and earth! 15May you be blessed by the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.
16The heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth he has given to mankind. 16The heavens are the LORD's, but the earth He has given to the human race.
17The dead do not praise the LORD, nor do any of those who descend into the silence of death. 17It is not the dead who praise the LORD, nor any of those descending into the silence of death.
18But we will praise the LORD now and forevermore. Praise the LORD! 18But we will praise the LORD, both now and forever. Hallelujah!
