Psalm 113:9–116:1

⁹Not to us, O Lord, not to us; but to thy name give glory.

¹⁰For thy mercy, and for thy truth’s sake: lest the Gentiles should say: Where is their God?

¹¹But our God is in heaven: he hath done all things whatsoever he would.

¹²The idols of the Gentiles are silver and gold, the works of the hands of men.

¹³They have mouths and speak not: they have eyes and see not.

¹⁴They have ears and hear not: they have noses and smell not.

¹⁵They have hands and feel not: they have feet and walk not: neither shall they cry out through their throat.

¹⁶Let them that make them become like unto them: and all such as trust in them.

¹⁷The house of Israel hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

¹⁸The house of Aaron hath hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

¹⁹They that fear the Lord have hoped in the Lord: he is their helper and their protector.

²⁰The Lord hath been mindful of us, and hath blessed us. He hath blessed the house of Israel: he hath blessed the house of Aaron.

²¹He hath blessed all that fear the Lord, both little and great.

²²May the Lord add blessings upon you: upon you, and upon your children.

²³Blessed be you of the Lord, who made heaven and earth.

²⁴The heaven of heaven is the Lord’s: but the earth he has given to the children of men.

²⁵The dead shall not praise thee, O Lord: nor any of them that go down to hell.

²⁶But we that live bless the Lord: from this time now and for ever.

Psalm 114

I have loved, because the Lord will hear the voice of my prayer.

²Because he hath inclined his ear unto me: and in my days I will call upon him.

³The sorrows of death have compassed me: and the perils of hell have found me. I met with trouble and sorrow:

⁴And I called upon the name of the Lord. O Lord, deliver my soul.

⁵The Lord is merciful and just, and our God sheweth mercy.

⁶The Lord is the keeper of little ones: I was humbled, and he delivered me.

⁷Turn, O my soul, into thy rest: for the Lord hath been bountiful to thee.

⁸For he hath delivered my soul from death: my eyes from tears, my feet from falling.

⁹I will please the Lord in the land of the living.

Psalm 115

I have believed, therefore have I spoken; but I have been humbled exceedingly.

¹¹I said in my excess: Every man is a liar.

¹²What shall I render to the Lord, for all the things that he hath rendered to me?

¹³I will take the chalice of salvation; and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

¹⁴I will pay my vows to the Lord before all his people:

¹⁵Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.

¹⁶O Lord, for I am thy servant: I am thy servant, and the son of thy handmaid. Thou hast broken my bonds:

¹⁷I will sacrifice to thee the sacrifice of praise, and I will call upon the name of the Lord.

¹⁸I will pay my vows to the Lord in the sight of all his people:

¹⁹In the courts of the house of the Lord, in the midst of thee, O Jerusalem.

Psalm 116

O Praise the Lord, all ye nations: praise him, all ye people.
