Psalms 115:1-10 Common English Bible (CEB)

1. Not to us, Lord, not to us—no, but to your own name give glorybecause of your loyal love and faithfulness!

2. Why do the nations say,"Where’s their God now?"

3. Our God is in heaven—he can do whatever he wants!

4. Their idols are just silver and gold—things made by human hands.

5. They have mouths, but they can’t speak.They have eyes, but they can’t see.

6. They have ears, but they can’t hear.They have noses, but they can’t smell.

7. They have hands, but they can’t feel.They have feet, but they can’t walk.They can’t even make a noise in their throats!

8. Let the people who made these idolsand all who trust in thembecome just like them!

9. But you, Israel, trust in the Lord!God is their help and shield.

10. Trust in the Lord, house of Aaron!God is their help and shield.
