33:1 Let the godly sing for joy to the LORD; it is fitting for the pure to praise him.
33:2 Praise the LORD with melodies on the lyre; make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.
33:3 Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.
33:4 For the word of the LORD holds true, and we can trust everything he does.
33:5 He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the LORD fills the earth.
33:6 The LORD merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.
33:7 He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
33:8 Let the whole world fear the LORD, and let everyone stand in awe of him.
33:9 For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.
33:10 The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes.
33:11 But the LORD's plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.
33:12 What joy for the nation whose God is the LORD, whose people he has chosen as his inheritance.
33:13 The LORD looks down from heaven and sees the whole human race.
33:14 From his throne he observes all who live on the earth.
33:15 He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do.
33:16 The best-equipped army cannot save a king, nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.
33:17 Don't count on your warhorse to give you victory--for all its strength, it cannot save you.
33:18 But the LORD watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his unfailing love.
33:19 He rescues them from death and keeps them alive in times of famine.
33:20 We put our hope in the LORD. He is our help and our shield.
33:21 In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
33:22 Let your unfailing love surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.
