 They have hands, but they cannot feel; feet, but they cannot walk; * they make no sound with their throat.

Those who make them are like them, * and so are all who put their trust in them.

O Israel, trust in the ; * he is their help and their shield.

O house of Aaron, trust in the ; * he is their help and their shield.

You who fear the, trust in the ; * he is their help and their shield.

The has been mindful of us, and he will bless us; * he will bless the house of Israel; he will bless the house of Aaron;

He will bless those who fear the, * both small and great together.

May the increase you more and more, * you and your children after you.

May you be blessed by the, * the maker of heaven and earth.

The heaven of heavens is the L, * but he entrusted the earth to its peoples.

The dead do not praise the, * nor all those who go down into silence;

But we will bless the, * from this time forth for evermore. Hallelujah!
