Psalms of David 33
33
Exultate justi.
Psalm XXXIII.
J. H.
1Ye righteous in the Lord rejoice:
it is a seemly sight,
That upright men with thankful voice
should praise the Lord of might.
2Praise ye the Lord with harp and song,
in Psalms and pleasant things:
With Lute and Instrument also
that soundeth with ten strings.
3Sing to the Lord a song most new,
with courage give him praise:
4For why? his word is ever true,
his workes and all his ways.
5To Judgment, equity and right,
he hath a great good will:
And with his gifts he doth delight
the Earth throughout to fill.
6For by the word of God alone
the heav’ns above were wrought:
Their hosts and powers every one
his breath to pass hath brought.
7The waters great gather’d hath he
on heaps within the shore:
And hid them in the depth to be,
as in a house of store.
8All men on earth both least and most,
fear God and keep his law:
Ye that inhabit in each coast,
dread him and stand in awe.
9What he commanded wrought it was
at once with present speed:
What he doth will is brought to pass
with full effect indeed.
10The counsels of the nations rude
the Lord doth bring to naught:
He doth defeat the multitude
of their device and thought.
11But his decrees continue still,
they never slack nor swage:
The motions of his mind and will
take place in every age.
The Second Part.
12And blest are they to whom the Lord
as God and guide is known:
Whom he doth chuse of meet accord
to take them as his own.
13The Lord from Heav’n did cast his fight
on Men mortal by birth:
14Beholding from his seat of might
The dwellers on the Earth.
15The Lord, I say, whose hand hath wrought
man’s heart and doth it frame:
For he alone doth know the thought,
and working of the same.
16A King that trusteth in his hoast,
shall nought prevail at length:
The Man that of his might doth boast,
shall fall for all his strength.
17The Troops of Horsemen all shall fail,
their sturdy Steeds shall swerve:
The strength of horse shall not prevail
the rider to preserve.
18But lo, the Eyes of God intend
and watch to aid the just:
With such as fear him to offend,
and on his goodness trust.
19That he of death and great distress
may set their Souls from dread:
And if that dearth their land oppress,
in hunger them to feed.
20Wherefore our Soul doth whole depend
on God our strength and stay:
He is our shield us to defend
and drive all darts away.
21Our joyful sounds always proclaim
his power and his might:
For why? in his most holy name
we hope and much delight.
22Therefore let thy goodness, O Lord,
still present with us be:
As we always with one accord
do only trust in thee.
