←Prev   Psalms 33 as rendered by/in  Next→ 


33:1  Rejoice in the Lord, good people! It is only right for good people to praise him.
33:2  Play the lyre and praise the Lord. Play the ten-stringed harp for him.
33:3  Sing a new song to him. Play it well and sing it loud!
33:4  The Lord’s word is true, and he is faithful in everything he does.
33:5  He loves goodness and justice. The Lord’s faithful love fills the earth.
33:6  The Lord spoke the command, and the world was made. The breath from his mouth created everything in the heavens.
33:7  He gathered together the water of the sea. He put the ocean in its place.
33:8  Everyone on earth should fear and respect the Lord. All the people in the world should fear him,
33:9  because when he speaks, things happen. And if he says, “Stop!”—then it stops.
33:10  The Lord can ruin every decision the nations make. He can spoil all their plans.
33:11  But the Lord’s decisions are good forever. His plans are good for generation after generation.
33:12  Great blessings belong to those who have the Lord as their God! He chose them to be his own special people.
33:13  The Lord looked down from heaven and saw all the people.
33:14  From his high throne he looked down at all the people living on earth.
33:15  He created every person’s mind, and he knows what each one is doing.
33:16  A king is not saved by the power of his army. A soldier does not survive by his own great strength.
33:17  Horses don’t really bring victory in war. Their strength cannot help you escape.
33:18  The Lord watches over his followers, those who wait for him to show his faithful love.
33:19  He saves them from death. He gives them strength when they are hungry.
33:20  So we will wait for the Lord. He helps us and protects us.
33:21  He makes us happy. We trust his holy name.
33:22  Lord, we worship you, so show your great love for us.
