Chapter 115
1לֹא לָנוּ יְהֹוָה לֹא־לָנוּ כִּֽי־לְשִׁמְךָ תֵּן כָּבוֹד עַל־חַסְדְּךָ עַל־אֲמִתֶּֽךָNot to us, O ETERNAL One, not to us but to Your name bring glory for the sake of Your love and Your faithfulness.Lo lanu Adonai lo-lanu ki-leshimcha ten kavod al-chasdcha al-amitecha
2לָמָּה יֹאמְרוּ הַגּוֹיִם אַיֵּה־נָא אֱלֹהֵיהֶֽםLet the nations not say, “Where, now, is their God?”Lamah yomru hagoyim ayeh-na eloheyhem
3וֵאלֹהֵינוּ בַשָּׁמָיִם כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־חָפֵץ עָשָֽׂהwhen our God is in heaven and whatever [God] wants is accomplished.Veloheynu vashamayim kol asher-chafetz asah
4עֲֽצַבֵּיהֶם כֶּסֶף וְזָהָב מַעֲשֵׂה יְדֵי אָדָֽםTheir idols are silver and gold, the work of human hands.Atzabeyhem kesef vezahav maaseh yedey adam
5פֶּֽה־לָהֶם וְלֹא יְדַבֵּרוּ עֵינַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִרְאֽוּThey have mouths, but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see;Peh-lahem velo yedaberu eynayim lahem velo yiru
6אׇזְנַיִם לָהֶם וְלֹא יִשְׁמָעוּ אַף לָהֶם וְלֹא יְרִיחֽוּןthey have ears, but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell;Oznayim lahem velo yishmau af lahem velo yerichun
7יְדֵיהֶם וְלֹא יְמִישׁוּן רַגְלֵיהֶם וְלֹא יְהַלֵּכוּ לֹא־יֶהְגּוּ בִּגְרוֹנָֽםthey have hands, but cannot touch, feet, but cannot walk; they can make no sound in their throats.Yedeyhem velo yemishun ragleyhem velo yehalechu lo-yehgu bigronam
8כְּמוֹהֶם יִהְיוּ עֹשֵׂיהֶם כֹּל אֲשֶׁר־בֹּטֵחַ בָּהֶֽםThose who fashion them, all who trust in them, shall become like them.Kemohem yihyu oseyhem kol asher-botecha bahem
9יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּטַח בַּיהֹוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּאO Israel, trust in GOD— who is your help and shield.Yisrael betach bayhovah ezram umaginam hu
10בֵּית אַהֲרֹן בִּטְחוּ בַיהֹוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּאO house of Aaron, trust in GOD— who is your help and shield.Beyt aharon bitchu vayhovah ezram umaginam hu
11יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה בִּטְחוּ בַיהֹוָה עֶזְרָם וּמָגִנָּם הֽוּאO you who fear GOD, trust in GOD— who is your help and shield.Yirey Adonai bitchu vayhovah ezram umaginam hu
12יְהֹוָה זְכָרָנוּ יְבָרֵךְ יְבָרֵךְ אֶת־בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל יְבָרֵךְ אֶת־בֵּית אַהֲרֹֽןGOD, mindful of us, will bless us— blessing the house of Israel, blessing the house of Aaron,Adonai zecharanu yevarech yevarech et-beyt yisrael yevarech et-beyt aharon
13יְבָרֵךְ יִרְאֵי יְהֹוָה הַקְּטַנִּים עִם־הַגְּדֹלִֽיםand blessing those who revere GOD, small and great alike.Yevarech yirey Adonai haktanim im-hagdolim
14יֹסֵף יְהֹוָה עֲלֵיכֶם עֲלֵיכֶם וְעַל־בְּנֵיכֶֽםMay GOD increase your numbers, yours and your children’s also.Yosef Adonai aleychem aleychem veal-beneychem
15בְּרוּכִים אַתֶּם לַיהֹוָה עֹשֵׂה שָׁמַיִם וָאָֽרֶץMay you be blessed by GOD, Maker of heaven and earth.Beruchim atem layhovah oseh shamayim vaaretz
16הַשָּׁמַיִם שָׁמַיִם לַיהֹוָה וְהָאָרֶץ נָתַן לִבְנֵי־אָדָֽםThe heavens belong to GOD, but the earth was given over to humankind.Hashamayim shamayim layhovah vehaaretz natan livney-adam
17לֹא הַמֵּתִים יְהַֽלְלוּ־יָהּ וְלֹא כׇּל־יֹרְדֵי דוּמָֽהThe dead cannot praise Yah, nor any who go down into silence.Lo hametim yehallu-yah velo kol-yordey dumah
18וַאֲנַחְנוּ נְבָרֵךְ יָהּ מֵעַתָּה וְעַד־עוֹלָם הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּBut we will bless Yah now and forever. Hallelujah.Vaanachnu nevarech yah meatah vead-olam hallu-yah
