←Prev   Psalms 33 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


33:1  Rejoice in the Lord, O you [uncompromisingly] righteous [you upright in right standing with God]; for praise is becoming and appropriate for those who are upright [in heart].
33:2  Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre; sing praises to Him with the harp of ten strings.
33:3  Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully [on the strings] with a loud and joyful sound.
33:4  For the word of the Lord is right; and all His work is done in faithfulness.
33:5  He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the loving-kindness of the Lord.
33:6  By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, and all their host by the breath of His mouth.
33:7  He gathers the waters of the sea as in a bottle; He puts the deeps in storage places.
33:8  Let all the earth fear the Lord [revere and worship Him]; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
33:9  For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.
33:10  The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nought; He makes the thoughts and plans of the peoples of no effect.
33:11  The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the thoughts of His heart through all generations.
33:12  Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His heritage.
33:13  The Lord looks from heaven, He beholds all the sons of men;
33:14  From His dwelling place He looks [intently] upon all the inhabitants of the earth—
33:15  He Who fashions the hearts of them all, Who considers all their doings.
33:16  No king is saved by the great size and power of his army; a mighty man is not delivered by [his] much strength.
33:17  A horse is devoid of value for victory; neither does he deliver any by his great power.
33:18  Behold, the Lord’s eye is upon those who fear Him [who revere and worship Him with awe], who wait for Him and hope in His mercy and loving-kindness,
33:19  To deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
33:20  Our inner selves wait [earnestly] for the Lord; He is our Help and our Shield.
33:21  For in Him does our heart rejoice, because we have trusted (relied on and been confident) in His holy name.
33:22  Let Your mercy and loving-kindness, O Lord, be upon us, in proportion to our waiting and hoping for You.
