CHAP. CXV.

1 Because God is truly glorious, 4 and Idols are vanity, 9 He exhorteth to confidence in God. 12 God is to be blessed for his blessings.

1 Not vnto vs, O Lord, not vnto vs, but vnto thy name giue glory: for thy mercy, and for thy truthes sake.

2 Wherefore should the heathen say: Where is now their God?2

7 They haue hands, but they handle not, feete haue they, but they walke not: neither speake they through their throat.

8 They that make them are like vnto them: so is euery one that trusteth in them.

9 O Israel, trust thou in the Lord: he is their helpe and their shield.

10 O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord: he is their helpe & their shield.

11 Ye that feare the Lord trust in the Lord: he is their helpe and their shield.

12 The Lord hath bene mindfull of vs, he will blesse vs, he will blesse the house of Israel: he will blesse the house of Aaron.

16 The heauen, euen the heauens are the Lords: but the earth hath hee giuen to the children of men.

17 The dead praise not the Lord: neither any that go downe into silence.

18 But we will blesse the Lord, from this time foorth and for euermore. Praise the Lord.18
