There is only one true God[a]

115 Lord, you are the one
    who deserves that people praise you.
They should praise only you, not us!
Because you love us with a faithful love,
    and you always do what you have promised.
Why should other nations say about us,
    ‘Where is their God?’
We know that our God is in heaven.
    He does whatever he wants to do.

Footnotes

  1. 115:1 This psalm teaches us that there is only one God. All other gods are made by people, and they have no power to help us. Verses 4-8 tell us about idols. Idols are false gods. People that trust idols to help them will become useless like them.
