Psalms 115:15
13 He will bless them that fear the LORD, both small and great.
14 The LORD shall increase you more and more, you and your children.
Ye are blessed of the LORD which made heaven and earth.
16 The heaven, even the heavens, are the LORD’s: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
17 The dead praise not the LORD, neither any that go down into silence.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
