< Psalms 33 >

1 [A Psalm] of David. Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; praise becomes the upright.
רַנְּנוּ צַדִּיקִים בַּֽיהֹוָה לַיְשָׁרִים נָאוָה תְהִלָּֽה׃
2 Praise the Lord on the harp; platy to him on a lute of ten strings.
הוֹדוּ לַיהֹוָה בְּכִנּוֹר בְּנֵבֶל עָשׂוֹר זַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹ׃
3 Sing to him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
שִֽׁירוּ־לוֹ שִׁיר חָדָשׁ הֵיטִיבוּ נַגֵּן בִּתְרוּעָֽה׃
4 For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are faithful.
כִּֽי־יָשָׁר דְּבַר־יְהֹוָה וְכׇל־מַעֲשֵׂהוּ בֶּאֱמוּנָֽה׃
5 He loves mercy and judgement; the earth is full the mercy of the Lord.
אֹהֵב צְדָקָה וּמִשְׁפָּט חֶסֶד יְהֹוָה מָלְאָה הָאָֽרֶץ׃
6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the host of them by the breath of his [mouth].
בִּדְבַר יְהֹוָה שָׁמַיִם נַעֲשׂוּ וּבְרוּחַ פִּיו כׇּל־צְבָאָֽם׃
7 Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the deeps in treasuries.
כֹּנֵס כַּנֵּד מֵי הַיָּם נֹתֵן בְּאוֹצָרוֹת תְּהוֹמֽוֹת׃
8 Let all the earth fear the Lord; and let all that dwell in the world be moved because of him.
יִֽירְאוּ מֵיְהֹוָה כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ מִמֶּנּוּ יָגוּרוּ כׇּל־יֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵֽל׃
9 For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
כִּי הוּא אָמַר וַיֶּהִי הֽוּא־צִוָּה וַֽיַּעֲמֹֽד׃
10 The Lord frustrates the counsels of the nations; he brings to nothing also the reasonings of the peoples, and brings to nothing the counsels of princes.
יְֽהֹוָה הֵפִיר עֲצַת־גּוֹיִם הֵנִיא מַחְשְׁבוֹת עַמִּֽים׃
11 But the counsel of the Lord endures for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
עֲצַת יְהֹוָה לְעוֹלָם תַּעֲמֹד מַחְשְׁבוֹת לִבּוֹ לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
אַשְׁרֵי הַגּוֹי אֲשֶׁר־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהָיו הָעָם ׀ בָּחַר לְנַחֲלָה לֽוֹ׃
13 The Lord looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
מִשָּׁמַיִם הִבִּיט יְהֹוָה רָאָה אֶֽת־כׇּל־בְּנֵי הָאָדָֽם׃
14 He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the earth;
מִֽמְּכוֹן־שִׁבְתּוֹ הִשְׁגִּיחַ אֶל כׇּל־יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָֽרֶץ׃
15 who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
הַיֹּצֵר יַחַד לִבָּם הַמֵּבִין אֶל־כׇּל־מַעֲשֵׂיהֶֽם׃
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.
אֵֽין־הַמֶּלֶךְ נוֹשָׁע בְּרׇב־חָיִל גִּבּוֹר לֹא־יִנָּצֵל בְּרׇב־כֹּֽחַ׃
17 A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.
שֶׁקֶר הַסּוּס לִתְשׁוּעָה וּבְרֹב חֵילוֹ לֹא יְמַלֵּֽט׃
18 Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him, those that hope in his mercy;
הִנֵּה עֵין יְהֹוָה אֶל־יְרֵאָיו לַֽמְיַחֲלִים לְחַסְדּֽוֹ׃
19 to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
לְהַצִּיל מִמָּוֶת נַפְשָׁם וּלְחַיּוֹתָם בָּרָעָֽב׃
20 Our soul waits on the Lord; for he is our helper and defender.
נַפְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָה לַֽיהֹוָה עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הֽוּא׃
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy name.
כִּי־בוֹ יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ כִּי בְשֵׁם קׇדְשׁוֹ בָטָֽחְנוּ׃
22 Let your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we have hoped in you.
יְהִי־חַסְדְּךָ יְהֹוָה עָלֵינוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר יִחַלְנוּ לָֽךְ׃
