Psalms 33
33
The Sovereignty of the Lord.
1Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous!
Praise is becoming to the upright. # Ps 32:11; 147:1
2Praise the Lord with the harp;
make music to Him with an instrument of ten strings. # Ps 92:3; 144:9
3Sing to Him a new song; # Ps 96:1; Isa 42:10
play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4For the word of the Lord is upright, # Ps 19:8; 119:75
and all His work is done in truth.
5He loves righteousness and justice; # Ps 11:7
the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the Lord. # Ps 119:64
6By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, # Heb 11:3
and all their host by the breath of His mouth.
7He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; # Ex 15:8; Jos 3:16
He puts the deeps in storehouses.
8Let all the earth fear the Lord;
let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
9For He spoke, and it was done; # Ge 1:3
He commanded, and it stood fast. # Ps 148:5–6
10The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; # Isa 19:3
He makes the plans of the people of no effect. # 2Sa 15:34
11The counsel of the Lord stands forever, # Pr 19:21
the plans of His heart to all generations. # Job 23:13
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, # Dt 33:29; Ps 144:15
the people whom He has chosen as His inheritance.
13The Lord looks down from heaven; # Job 28:24
He sees all the sons of men. # Ps 11:4
14From the place of His habitation He gazes # 1Ki 8:39
on all the inhabitants of the earth;
15He fashions the hearts of them all;
He considers all their works. # Jer 32:19
16No king is saved by a great army;
a mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17A horse is a vain hope for safety; # Ps 20:7; Pr 21:31
it will not deliver by its great strength.
18Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, # Job 36:7; Ps 147:11
on those who hope in His lovingkindness,
19to deliver their soul from death,
and to keep them alive in famine. # Ps 37:19
20Our soul waits for the Lord;
He is our help and our shield.
21For our heart will rejoice in Him, # Zec 10:7; Jn 16:22
because we have trusted in His holy name.
22Let Your lovingkindness, O Lord, be upon us,
just as we hope in You.

Psalms 33
33
PSALM 33.
1For David, when he changed his countenance before Achimelech, who dismissed him, and he went his way#2 Kings 21..
2I will bless the Lord at all times, his praise shall be always in my mouth.
3In the Lord shall my soul be praised: let the meek hear and rejoice.
4O magnify the Lord with me; and let us extol his name together.
5I sought the Lord, and he heard me; and he delivered me from all my troubles.
6Come ye to him and be enlightened: and your faces shall not be confounded.
7This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him: and saved him out of all his troubles.
8The angel of the Lord shall encamp round about them that fear him: and shall deliver them.
9O taste, and see that the Lord is sweet: blessed is the man that hopeth in him.
10Fear the Lord, all ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
11The rich have wanted, and have suffered hunger: but they that seek the Lord shall not be deprived of any good.
12Come, children, hearken to me: I will teach you the fear of the Lord.
13Who is the man that desireth life: who loveth to see good days?
14Keep thy tongue from evil, and thy lips from speaking guile.
15Turn away from evil and do good: seek after peace and pursue it.
16The eyes of the Lord are upon the just: and his ears unto their prayers.
17But the countenance of the Lord is against them that do evil things: to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.
18The just cried, and the Lord heard them: and delivered them out of all their troubles.
19The Lord is nigh unto them that are of a contrite heart: and he will save the humble of spirit.
20Many are the afflictions of the just; but out of them all will the Lord deliver them.
21The Lord keepeth all their bones, not one of them shall be broken.
22The death of the wicked is very evil: and they that hate the just shall be guilty.
23The Lord will redeem the souls of his servants: and none of them that trust in him shall offend.
