Psalms 33
1 Rejoice in Jehovah, O ye righteous. Praise is comely for the upright.
Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise [is] comely.
2 Give thanks to Jehovah with the harp. Sing praises to him with the psaltery of ten strings.
Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him,
3 Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a loud noise.
Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.
4 For the word of Jehovah is right, and all his work is done in faithfulness.
For upright [is] the word of Jehovah, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
5 He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Jehovah.
Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of Jehovah is the earth full.
6 By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.
7 He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in store-houses.
Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in treasuries the depths.
8 Let all the earth fear Jehovah. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid.
9 For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood fast.
For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth.
10 Jehovah brings the counsel of the nations to naught. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
11 The counsel of Jehovah stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
O the happiness of the nation whose God [is] Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.
13 Jehovah looks from heaven. He beholds all the sons of men.
From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looks forth upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth;
15 he who fashions the hearts of them all, who considers all their works.
Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works.
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
17 A horse is a vain thing for safety, nor does he deliver any by his great power.
A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.
18 Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon those who fear him, upon those who hope in his loving kindness,
Lo, the eye of Jehovah [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
19 to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul has waited for Jehovah. He is our help and our shield.
Our soul hath waited for Jehovah, Our help and our shield [is] He,
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him because we have trusted in his holy name.
For in Him doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we have trusted.
22 Let thy loving kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited for Thee!
