Psalms 33
1 [A Psalm] of David. Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; praise becomes the upright.
Rejoice in Yhwh, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
2 Praise the Lord on the harp; platy to him on a psaltery of ten strings.
Praise Yhwh with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
3 Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
4 For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are faithful.
For the word of Yhwh is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5 He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full the mercy of the Lord.
He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of Yhwh.
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the host of them by the breath of his [mouth].
By the word of Yhwh were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the deeps in treasuries.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord; and let all that dwell in the world be moved because of him.
Let all the earth fear Yhwh: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10 The Lord frustrates the counsels of the nations; he brings to nought also the reasonings of the peoples, and brings to nought the counsels of princes.
Yhwh bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 But the counsel of the Lord endures for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
The counsel of Yhwh standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
Blessed is the nation whose God is Yhwh; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13 The Lord looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
Yhwh looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14 He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the earth;
From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15 who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
16 A king is not saved by reason of a great host; and a giant shall not be delivered by the greatness of his strength.
There is no king saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.
An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
18 Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him, those that hope in his mercy;
Behold, the eye of Yhwh is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19 to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waits on the Lord; for he is our helper and defender.
Our soul waiteth for Yhwh: he is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy name.
For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
Let thy mercy, O Yhwh, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
