Psalm 115-116

Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Psalm 115-116

1Not to us, O LORD, not to us,
but to Your name be the glory,
because of Your loving devotion,
because of Your faithfulness.
2Why should the nations say,
“Where is their God?”
3Our God is in heaven;
He does as He pleases.
4Their idols are silver and gold,
made by the hands of men.
5They have mouths, but cannot speak;
they have eyes, but cannot see;
6they have ears, but cannot hear;
they have noses, but cannot smell;
7they have hands, but cannot feel;
they have feet, but cannot walk;
they cannot even clear their throats.
8Those who make them become like them,
as do all who trust in them.
9O Israel, trust in the LORD!
He is their help and shield.
10O house 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 is 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 —
small and great alike.
14May the LORD give you increase,
both you and your children.
15May you be blessed by the LORD,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
16The highest heavens belong to the LORD,
but the earth He has given to mankind.
17It is not the dead who praise the LORD,
nor any who descend into silence.
18But it is we who will bless the LORD,
both now and forevermore.
Hallelujah!
1I love the LORD, for He has heard my voice —
my appeal for mercy.
2Because He has inclined His ear to me,
I will call on Him as long as I live.
3The ropes of death entangled me;
the anguish of Sheol overcame me;
I was confronted by trouble and sorrow.
4Then I called on the name of the LORD:
“O LORD, deliver my soul!”
5The LORD is gracious and righteous;
our God is full of compassion.
6The LORD preserves the simplehearted;
I was helpless, and He saved me.
7Return to your rest, O my soul,
for the LORD has been good to you.
8For You have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling.
9I will walk before the LORD
in the land of the living.
10I believed, therefore I said,
“I am greatly afflicted.”
11In my alarm I said,
“All men are liars!”
12How can I repay the LORD
for all His goodness to me?
13I will lift the cup of salvation
and call on the name of the LORD.
14I will fulfill my vows to the LORD
in the presence of all His people.
15Precious in the sight of the LORD
is the death of His saints.
16Truly, O LORD, I am Your servant;
I am Your servant, the son of Your maidservant;
You have broken my bonds.
17I will offer to You a sacrifice of thanksgiving
and call on the name of the LORD.
18I will fulfill my vows to the LORD
in the presence of all His people,
19in the courts of the LORD’s house,
in your midst, O Jerusalem.
Hallelujah!
