Psalms 115:4-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 115
4Their idols are silver and gold, The work of human hands. 5They have mouths, but they cannot speak; They have eyes, but they cannot see; 6They have ears, but they cannot hear; They have noses, but they cannot smell; 7 They have hands, but they cannot feel; They have feet, but they cannot walk; They cannot make a sound with their throat. 8Those who make them will become like them, Everyone who trusts in them. 9Israel, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. 10House of Aaron, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. 11You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord; He is their help and their shield. 12The Lord has been mindful of us; He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; He will bless the house of Aaron. 13He will bless those who fear the Lord, The small together with the great. 14May the Lord increase you, You and your children. 15May you be blessed of the Lord, Maker of heaven and earth. 16The heavens are the heavens of the Lord, But the earth He has given to the sons of mankind. 17The dead do not praise the Lord, Nor do any who go down into silence; 18But as for us, we will bless the Lord From this time and forever. Praise the Lord!King James Version

Chapter 115
4Their idols are silver and gold, made by human hands. 5They have mouths but cannot speak, eyes, but cannot see. 6They have ears but cannot hear, noses, but cannot smell. 7They have hands but cannot feel, feet, but cannot walk. They cannot make a sound with their throats.
8Those who make them are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
9Israel, trust in the Lord! He is their help and shield.
10House of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is their help and shield.
11You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is their help and shield.
12The Lord remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;
13he will bless those who fear the Lord — small and great alike.
14May the Lord add to your numbers, both yours and your children’s.
15May you be blessed by the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
16The heavens are the Lord’s, but the earth he has given to the human race.
17It is not the dead who praise the Lord, nor any of those descending into the silence of death.
18But we will bless the Lord, both now and forever. Hallelujah!
New Living Translation
Chapter 115
4Their idols are merely things of silver and gold, shaped by human hands. 5They have mouths but cannot speak, and eyes but cannot see. 6They have ears but cannot hear, and noses but cannot smell. 7They have hands but cannot feel, and feet but cannot walk, and throats but cannot make a sound. 8And those who make idols are just like them, as are all who trust in them.
9O Israel, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.
10O priests, descendants of Aaron, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.
11All you who fear the Lord, trust the Lord! He is your helper and your shield.
12The Lord remembers us and will bless us. He will bless the people of Israel and bless the priests, the descendants of Aaron.
13He will bless those who fear the Lord, both great and lowly.

He is their help and their shield. 10O house of Aaron, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield. 11You who fear the Lord, trust in the Lord! He is their help and their shield. 12The Lord has remembered us; he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron; 13he will bless those who fear the Lord, both the small and the great. 14May the Lord give you increase, you and your children! 15May you be blessed by the Lord, who made heaven and earth! 16The heavens are the Lord 's heavens, but the earth he has given to the children of man. 17 The dead do not praise the Lord, nor do any who go down into silence. 18But we will bless the Lord from this time forth and forevermore.
