PSALM 115
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Not unto us, Lord, not to us,
but do thou glory take
Unto thy name, ev'n for thy truth,
and for thy mercy's sake.
2O wherefore should the heathen say,
Where is their God now gone?
3But our God in the heavens is,
what pleas'd him he hath done.
4Their idols silver are and gold,
work of men's hands they be.
5Mouths have they, but they do not speak;
and eyes, but do not see;
6Ears have they, but they do not hear;
noses, but savour not;
7Hands, feet, but handle not, nor walk;
nor speak they through their throat.
8Like them their makers are, and all
on them their trust that build.
9O Isr'el, trust thou in the Lord,
he is their help and shield.
10O Aaron's house, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield is he.
11Ye that fear God, trust in the Lord,
their help and shield he'll be.
12The Lord of us hath mindful been,
and he will bless us still:
He will the house of Isr'el bless,
bless Aaron's house he will.
13Both small and great, that fear the Lord,
he will them surely bless.
14The Lord will you, you and your seed,
aye more and more increase.
15O blessed are ye of the Lord,
who made the earth and heav'n.
16The heav'n, ev'n heav'ns, are God's, but he
earth to men's sons hath giv'n.
17The dead, nor who to silence go,
God's praise do not record.
18But henceforth we for ever will
bless God. Praise ye the Lord.

Psalms 115
115
1Not unto us, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], not unto us, but unto youri name give glory, for youri mercy, [and] for youri truth’s sake.
2For what reason should the heathen say, Where [is] now their God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered]?
3But our God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [is] in the heavens: he has done whatsoever he has pleased.
4Their idols [are] silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
5They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
6They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
7They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
8They that make them are like unto them; [so is] every one that trusts in them.
9O Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel of God], trust youi in the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: he [is] their help and their shield.
10O house of Aharon [Bright, Very High], trust in the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: he [is] their help and their shield.
11You2f that fear the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], trust in the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: he [is] their help and their shield.
12The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] has been mindful of us: he will bless [us]; he will bless the house of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel of God]; he will bless the house of Aharon [Bright, Very High].
13He will bless them that fear the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], [both] small and great.
14The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
15You2f [are] Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] which made heaven and earth.
16The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the Lord-Yehōvah’s [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: but the earth has he given to the children of men.
17The dead praise not the Lord- Yah [Behold The Hand] (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), neither any that go down into silence.
18But we will bless the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] from this time forth and forevermore. Praise the Lord- Yah [Behold The Hand] (Messiah Pre-Incarnate).
