Psalms 33
-
1Rejoice in Yahweh, you righteous!
- Praise is fitting for the upright.
-
2Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre.
- Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings.
-
3Sing to him a new song.
- Play skillfully with a shout of joy!
-
4For the word of Yahweh is right.
- All his work is done in faithfulness.
-
5He loves righteousness and justice.
- The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh.
-
6By Yahweh’s word, the heavens were made;
- all their army by the breath of his mouth.
-
7He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap.
- He lays up the deeps in storehouses.
-
8Let all the earth fear Yahweh.
- Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
-
9For he spoke, and it was done.
- He commanded, and it stood firm.
-
10Yahweh brings the counsel of the nations to nothing.
- He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
-
11The counsel of Yahweh stands fast forever,
- the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
-
12Blessed is the nation whose God is Yahweh,
- the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
-
13Yahweh looks from heaven.
- He sees all the sons of men.
-
14From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
-
15he who fashions all of their hearts;
- and he considers all of their works.
-
16There is no king saved by the multitude of an army.
- A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
-
17A horse is a vain thing for safety,
- neither does he deliver any by his great power.
-
18Behold, Yahweh’s eye is on those who fear him,
- on those who hope in his loving kindness;
-
19to deliver their soul from death,
- to keep them alive in famine.
-
20Our soul has waited for Yahweh.
- He is our help and our shield.
-
21For our heart rejoices in him,
- because we have trusted in his holy name.
-
22Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh,
- since we have hoped in you.
