Psalms 33
33
1Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous:
Praise is comely for the upright.
2Give thanks unto the LORD with harp:
Sing praises unto him with the psaltery of ten strings.
3Sing unto him a new song;
Play skilfully with a loud noise.
4For the word of the LORD is right;
And all his work is done in faithfulness.
5He loveth righteousness and judgement:
The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.
6By the word of the LORD were the heavens made;
And all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap:
He layeth up 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 spake, and it was done;
He commanded, and it stood fast.
10The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought:
He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of none effect.
11The counsel of the LORD standeth fast for ever,
The thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD;
The people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13The LORD looketh from heaven;
He beholdeth all the sons of men;
14From the place of his habitation he looketh forth
Upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
15He that fashioneth the hearts of them all,
That considereth all their works.
16There is no king saved by the multitude of an host:
A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
17An horse is a vain thing for safety:
Neither shall he deliver any by his great power.
18Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him,
Upon them that hope in his mercy;
19To deliver their soul from death,
And to keep them alive in famine.
20Our soul hath waited for the LORD:
He is our help and our shield.
21For our heart shall rejoice in him,
Because we have trusted in his holy name.
22Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us,
According as we have hoped in thee.

Psalms 33
33
A Song of Praise
1All you that are righteous,
shout for joy for what the LORD has done;
praise him, all you that obey him.
2Give thanks to the LORD with harps,
sing to him with stringed instruments.
3Sing a new song to him,
play the harp with skill, and shout for joy!
4The words of the LORD are true
and all his works are dependable.
5The LORD loves what is righteous and just;
his constant love fills the earth.
6The LORD created the heavens by his command,
the sun, moon, and stars by his spoken word.
7He gathered all the seas into one place;
he shut up the ocean depths in storerooms.
8Worship the LORD, all the earth!
Honour him, all peoples of the world!
9When he spoke, the world was created;
at his command everything appeared.
10The LORD frustrates the purposes of the nations;
he keeps them from carrying out their plans.
11But his plans endure for ever;
his purposes last eternally.
12Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD;
happy are the people he has chosen for his own!
13The LORD looks down from heaven
and sees the whole human race.
14From where he rules, he looks down
on all who live on earth.
15He forms all their thoughts
and knows everything they do.
16A king does not win because of his powerful army;
a soldier does not triumph because of his strength.
17War horses are useless for victory;
their great strength cannot save.
18The LORD watches over those who obey him,
those who trust in his constant love.
19He saves them from death;
he keeps them alive in times of famine.
20We put our hope in the LORD;
he is our protector and our help.
21We are glad because of him;
we trust in his holy name.
22May your constant love be with us, LORD,
as we put our hope in you.
