¹ Not vnto vs, O Lord, not vnto vs, but vnto thy Name giue the glorie, for thy louing mercie and for thy truethes sake.² Wherefore shall the heathen say, Where is nowe their God?³ But our God is in heauen: he doeth what so euer he will.⁴ Their idoles are siluer and golde, euen the worke of mens hands.⁵ They haue a mouth and speake not: they haue eyes and see not.⁶ They haue eares and heare not: they haue noses and smell not.⁷ They haue handes and touche not: they haue feete and walke not: neither make they a sound with their throte.⁸ They that make them are like vnto them: so are all that trust in them.

⁹ O Israel, trust thou in the Lorde: for he is their helpe and their shielde.¹⁰ O house of Aaron, trust ye in the Lord: for he is their helpe and their shielde.¹¹ Ye that feare the Lorde, trust in the Lord: for he is their helper and their shield.¹² The Lord hath bene mindfull of vs: he will blesse, he will blesse the house of Israel, he will blesse the house of Aaron.¹³ He will blesse them that feare the Lorde, both small and great.¹⁴ The Lord will increase his graces towarde you, euen toward you and toward your children.¹⁵ Ye are blessed of the Lorde, which made the heauen and the earth.¹⁶ The heauens, euen the heauens are the Lordes: but he hath giuen the earth to the sonnes of men.¹⁷ The dead prayse not the Lord, neither any that goe downe into the place of silence.¹⁸ But we will prayse the Lorde from henceforth and for euer. Prayse ye the Lord.
