Psalm 115
New King James Version
Psalm 115
New King James Version
The Futility of Idols and the Trustworthiness of God
115 Not (A)unto us, O Lord, not unto us,
But to Your name give glory,
Because of Your mercy,
Because of Your truth.
2 Why should the [a]Gentiles say,
(B)“So where is their God?”
3 (C)But our God is in heaven;
He does whatever He pleases.
4 (D)Their idols are silver and gold,
The work of men’s hands.
5 They have mouths, but they do not speak;
Eyes they have, but they do not see;
6 They have ears, but they do not hear;
Noses they have, but they do not smell;
7 They have hands, but they do not handle;
Feet they have, but they do not walk;
Nor do they mutter through their throat.
8 (E)Those who make them are like them;
So is everyone who trusts in them.
9 (F)O Israel, trust in the Lord;
(G)He is their help and their shield.
10 O 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 [b]has been mindful of us;
He will bless us;
He will bless the house of Israel;
He will bless the house of Aaron.
13 (H)He will bless those who fear the Lord,
Both small and great.
14 May the Lord give you increase more and more,
You and your children.
15 May you be (I)blessed by the Lord,
(J)Who made heaven and earth.
16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord’s;
But the earth He has given to the children of men.
17 (K)The dead do not praise the Lord,
Nor any who go down into silence.
18 (L)But we will bless the Lord
From this time forth and forevermore.
Praise the Lord!

Salmos 115
Nova Versão Transformadora
115 Não a nós, Senhor, não a nós,
mas ao teu nome seja toda a glória,
por teu amor e por tua fidelidade.
2 Por que as nações dizem:
“Onde está o deus deles?”.
3 Nosso Deus está nos céus
e faz tudo como deseja.
4 Seus ídolos não passam de objetos de prata e ouro,
formados por mãos humanas.
5 Têm boca, mas não falam;
olhos, mas não veem.
6 Têm ouvidos, mas não ouvem;
nariz, mas não respiram.
7 Têm mãos, mas não apalpam;
pés, mas não andam;
garganta, mas não emitem som.
8 Aqueles que fazem ídolos e neles confiam
são exatamente iguais a eles.
9 Ó Israel, confie no Senhor;
ele é seu auxílio e seu escudo!
10 Ó sacerdotes, descendentes de Arão, confiem no Senhor;
ele é seu auxílio e seu escudo!
11 Todos vocês que temem o Senhor, confiem nele;
ele é seu auxílio e seu escudo!
12 O Senhor se lembra de nós e nos abençoará;
sim, abençoará o povo de Israel
e os sacerdotes, descendentes de Arão.
13 Abençoará os que temem o Senhor,
tanto os grandes como os pequenos.
14 Que o Senhor multiplique bênçãos
para vocês e seus filhos.
15 Sejam abençoados pelo Senhor,
que fez os céus e a terra.
16 Os céus pertencem ao Senhor,
mas ele deu a terra à humanidade.
17 Os mortos não cantam louvores ao Senhor,
pois desceram ao silêncio da sepultura.
18 Nós, porém, louvaremos o Senhor
agora e para sempre.
Louvado seja o Senhor!

Psalm 115(A)
1 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us,
but unto Your name give glory,
for the sake of Your mercy, and for the sake of Your truth.
2 Why should the nations say,
“Where now is their God?”
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 cannot speak;
eyes, but they cannot see;
6 they have ears, but they cannot hear;
noses, but they cannot smell;
7 they have hands, but they cannot feel;
feet, but they cannot walk;
neither can they speak with their throat.
8 Those who make them are like them;
so is everyone who trusts in them.
9 O Israel, trust in the Lord;
He is their help and their shield.
10 O 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 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 the small and great ones.
14 The Lord shall increase you more and more,
you and your children.
15 You are blessed of the Lord,
who made heaven and earth.
16 The heavens belong to the Lord,
but the earth He has given to the children of men.
17 The dead do not praise the Lord,
nor do any who go down into silence.
18 But we will bless the Lord
from this time and for evermore.
Praise the Lord!
