Salmo 115
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Iisa ang Tunay na Dios
115 Panginoon, hindi kami ang dapat na parangalan,
kundi kayo, dahil sa inyong pag-ibig at katapatan.
2 Bakit kami kinukutya ng ibang bansa at sinasabi nilang,
“Nasaan na ang inyong Dios?”
3 Ang aming Dios ay nasa langit,
at ginagawa niya ang kanyang nais.
4 Ngunit ang kanilang mga dios ay yari sa pilak at ginto na gawa lang ng tao.
5 May bibig sila, ngunit hindi nakakapagsalita;
may mga mata, ngunit hindi nakakakita.
6 May mga tainga, ngunit hindi nakakarinig;
may ilong, ngunit hindi nakakaamoy.
7 May mga kamay, ngunit hindi nakakahawak;
may mga paa, ngunit hindi nakakalakad,
at kahit munting tinig ay wala kang marinig.
8 Ang mga gumawa ng mga dios-diosan at nagtitiwala rito ay matutulad sa mga ito.
9-10 Kayong mga mamamayan ng Israel at kayong mga angkan ni Aaron,
magtiwala kayo sa Panginoon.
Siya ang tutulong at mag-iingat sa inyo.
11 Kayong mga may takot sa Panginoon,
magtiwala kayo sa kanya.
Siya ang tutulong at mag-iingat sa inyo.
12 Hindi tayo kinakalimutan ng Panginoon,
pagpapalain niya ang mga mamamayan ng Israel at ang mga angkan ni Aaron.
13 Pagpapalain niya ang lahat ng may takot sa kanya, dakila man o aba.
14 Paramihin sana kayo ng Panginoon,
kayo at ang inyong mga angkan.
15 Sanaʼy pagpalain kayo ng Panginoon na lumikha ng langit at ng lupa.
16 Ang kalangitan ay sa Panginoon, ngunit ang mundo ay ipinagkatiwala niya sa mga tao.
17 Ang mga patay ay hindi na makakapagpuri sa Panginoon, dahil sila ay nananahimik na.
18 Tayong mga buhay ang dapat magpuri sa Panginoon ngayon at magpakailanman.
Purihin ang Panginoon!
Psalm 115
King James Version
115 Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory, for thy mercy, and for thy truth's sake.
2 Wherefore should the heathen say, Where is now their God?
3 But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.
4 Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.
5 They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:
6 They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:
7 They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.
8 They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.
9 O Israel, trust thou 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 Ye that fear the Lord, trust in the Lord: he is their help and their shield.
12 The Lord hath 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 them that fear the Lord, both small and great.
14 The Lord shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
15 Ye are blessed of the Lord which made heaven and earth.
16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the Lord's: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 The dead praise not the Lord, neither any that go down into silence.
18 But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the Lord.
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!
