Compare ASV (Psa 115:5-8) READS concerning Figures
--They have mouths, but they speak not; Eyyes have they, but they see not;
(Psa 115:6) They have ears, but they hear not; Noses have
they, but they smell not;
(Psa 115:7) They have hands, but they handle not; Feet
have they, but they walk not; Neither speak they through their throat.
(Psa 115:8) They that make them shall be like unto them;
Yea, every one that trusteth in them.
(Psa 115:8) Those who make idols end up like them. So does everyone who trusts them.—NSB
Psalms
From--Commentary
Glory to be ascribed to God. (1-8) by
trusting in him and praising him. (9-18)
Psalms 115:1-8--Commentary
Let no opinion of our own merits have any place in our prayers or in our
praises. All the good we do, is done by the power of his grace; and all the
good we have, is the gift of his mere mercy, and he must have all the praise.
Are we in pursuit of any mercy, and wrestling with God for it, we must take
encouragement in prayer from God only. Lord, do so for us; not that we may have
the credit and comfort of it, but that they mercy and truth may have the glory
of it. The heathen gods are senseless things. They are the works of men's
hands: the painter, the carver, the statuary, can put no life into them,
therefore no sense. The psalmist hence shows the folly of the worshippers of idols.
Psalms 115:9-18
It is folly to trust in dead images, but it is wisdom to trust in the living God, for he is a help and a
shield to those that trust in him. Wherever there is right fear of God, there
may be cheerful faith in him; those who reverence his word, may rely upon it.
He is ever found faithful. The greatest need his blessing, and it shall not be
denied to the meanest that fear him. God's blessing gives an increase,
especially in spiritual blessings. And the Lord is to be praised: his goodness is large, for he
has given the earth to the children of men for their use. The souls of the
faithful, after they are delivered from the burdens of the flesh,
are still praising him; but the dead body cannot praise God: death puts an end
to our glorifying him in this world of trial and conflict. Others are
dead, and an end is thereby put to their service, therefore we will seek to do
the more for God. We will not only do it ourselves, but will engage others to
do it; to praise him when we are gone. Lord, thou art the only object
for faith and love. Help us to praise thee while living and when dying,
that thy name may be the first and last upon our lips: and let the sweet savour of
thy name refresh our souls for ever.
