- 3But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.וֵֽאלֹהֵ֥ינוּ בַשָּׁמָ֑יִם כֹּ֭ל אֲשֶׁר חָפֵ֣ץ עָשָֽׂה
- 4Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men's hands.עֲֽ֭צַבֵּיהֶם כֶּ֣סֶף וְזָהָ֑ב מַ֝עֲשֵׂ֗ה יְדֵ֣י אָדָֽם
- 5They have mouths, but they speak not: eyes have they, but they see not:פֶּֽה וְלֹ֣א יְדַבֵּ֑רוּ עֵינַ֥יִם וְלֹ֣א יִרְאֽוּ
- 6They have ears, but they hear not: noses have they, but they smell not:אָזְנַ֣יִם וְלֹ֣א יִשְׁמָ֑עוּ אַ֥ף וְלֹ֣א יְרִיחֽוּן
- 7They have hands, but they handle not: feet have they, but they walk not: neither speak they through their throat.יְדֵיהֶ֤ם וְלֹ֬א יְמִישׁ֗וּן רַ֭גְלֵיהֶם וְלֹ֣א יְהַלֵּ֑כוּ לֹֽא יֶ֝הְגּ֗וּ בִּגְרוֹנָֽם
- 8They that make them are like unto them; so is every one that trusteth in them.כְּ֭מוֹהֶם יִהְי֣וּ עֹשֵׂיהֶ֑ם כֹּ֭ל אֲשֶׁר בֹּטֵ֣חַ

- 10O house of Aaron, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.בֵּ֣ית אַ֭הֲרֹן בִּטְח֣וּ בַיהוָ֑ה עֶזְרָ֖ם וּמָגִנָּ֣ם הֽוּא
- 11Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD: he is their help and their shield.יִרְאֵ֣י יְ֭הוָה בִּטְח֣וּ בַיהוָ֑ה עֶזְרָ֖ם וּמָגִנָּ֣ם הֽוּא
- 12The LORD hath been mindful of us: he will bless us; he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron.יְהוָה֮ זְכָרָ֪נוּ יְבָ֫רֵ֥ךְ יְ֭בָרֵךְ אֶת בֵּ֣ית יִשְׂרָאֵ֑ל יְ֝בָרֵ֗ךְ אֶת בֵּ֥ית אַהֲרֹֽן
- 13He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.יְ֭בָרֵךְ יִרְאֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה הַ֝קְּטַנִּ֗ים עִם הַגְּדֹלִֽים
- 14The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.יֹסֵ֣ף יְהוָ֣ה עֲלֵיכֶ֑ם עֲ֝לֵיכֶ֗ם וְעַל בְּנֵיכֶֽם
- 15Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.בְּרוּכִ֣ים אַ֭תֶּם לַיהוָ֑ה עֹ֝שֵׂ֗ה שָׁמַ֥יִם וָאָֽרֶץ
- 16The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם שָׁ֭מַיִם לַיהוָ֑ה וְ֝הָאָ֗רֶץ נָתַ֥ן לִבְנֵי אָדָֽם
- 17The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.לֹ֣א הַ֭מֵּתִים יְהַֽלְלוּ יָ֑הּ וְ֝לֹ֗א כָּל יֹרְדֵ֥י דוּמָֽה
- 18But we will bless the LORD from this time forth and for evermore. Praise the LORD.וַאֲנַ֤חְנוּ נְבָ֘רֵ֤ךְ יָ֗הּ מֵֽעַתָּ֥ה וְעַד עוֹלָ֗ם הַֽלְלוּ יָֽהּ

Psalm 115 original-language research
The Hebrew lines shown beneath the KJV text come from the Open Scriptures Hebrew Bible (OSHB) data in YHWSA. The chapter vocabulary below is ranked from verse-level Strong's tagging; grammatical particles are omitted so meaningful terms remain visible.
(the) self-Existent or Eternal; Jeho-vah, Jewish national name of God
to kneel; by implication to bless God (as an act of adoration), and (vice-versa) man (as a benefit); also (by euphemism) to curse (God or the king, as treason)
the sky (as aloft; the dual perhaps alluding to the visible arch in which the clouds move, as well as to the higher ether where the celestial bodies revolve)
properly, to hie for refuge (but not so precipitately as H2620); figuratively, to trust, be confident or sure
a house (in the greatest variation of applications, especially family, etc.)
he (she or it); only expressed when emphatic or without a verb; also (intensively) self, or (especially with the article) the same; sometimes (as demonstrative) this or that; occasionally (instead of copula) as or are
Jah, the sacred name

Hebrew verse gematria
YHWSA calculates these totals directly from every consonant in the tagged Hebrew source line using the Carlo Suarès letter-number system; vowel points and cantillation marks do not add values. The totals are not reverse-mapped from English. A matching number is a comparison to investigate, not proof that two passages mean the same thing.
