Psalms 33
1 Rejoice in the LORD, O ye righteous, praise is comely for the upright.
Psalmus David. Exultate iusti in Domino: rectos decet collaudatio.
2 Give thanks unto the LORD with harp, sing praises unto Him with the psaltery of ten strings.
Confitemini Domino in cithara: in psalterio decem chordarum psallite illi.
3 Sing unto Him a new song; play skilfully amid shouts of joy.
Cantate ei canticum novum: bene psallite ei in vociferatione.
4 For the word of the LORD is upright; and all His work is done in faithfulness.
Quia rectum est verbum Domini, et omnia opera eius in fide.
5 He loveth righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD.
Diligit misericordiam et iudicium: misericordia Domini plena est terra.
6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
Verbo Domini cæli firmati sunt: et spiritu oris eius omnis virtus eorum.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; He layeth up the deeps in storehouses.
Congregans sicut in utre aquas maris: ponens in thesauris abyssos.
8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
Timeat Dominum omnis terra: ab eo autem commoveantur omnes inhabitantes orbem.
9 For He spoke, and it was; He commanded, and it stood.
Quoniam ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
10 The LORD bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
Dominus dissipat consilia gentium: reprobat autem cogitationes populorum, et reprobat consilia principum.
11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations.
Consilium autem Domini in æternum manet: cogitationes cordis eius in generatione et generationem.
12 Happy is the nation whose God is the LORD; the people whom He hath chosen for His own inheritance.
Beata gens, cuius est Dominus, Deus eius: populus, quem elegit in hereditatem sibi.
13 The LORD looketh from heaven; He beholdeth all the sons of men;
De cælo respexit Dominus: vidit omnes filios hominum.
14 From the place of His habitation He looketh intently upon all the inhabitants of the earth;
De præparato habitaculo suo respexit super omnes, qui habitant terram.
15 He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings.
Qui finxit sigillatim corda eorum: qui intelligit omnia opera eorum.
16 A king is not saved by the multitude of a host; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength.
Non salvatur rex per multam virtutem: et gigas non salvabitur in multitudine virtutis suæ.
17 A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth it afford escape by its great strength.
Fallax equus ad salutem: in abundantia autem virtutis suæ non salvabitur.
18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is toward them that fear Him, toward them that wait for His mercy;
Ecce oculi Domini super metuentes eum: et in eis, qui sperant super misericordia eius.
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
Ut eruat a morte animas eorum: et alat eos in fame.
20 Our soul hath waited for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
Anima nostra sustinet Dominum: quoniam adiutor et protector noster est.
21 For in Him doth our heart rejoice, because we have trusted in His holy name.
Quia in eo lætabitur cor nostrum: et in nomine sancto eius speravimus.
22 Let Thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, according as we have waited for Thee.
Fiat misericordia tua Domine super nos: quemadmodum speravimus in te.
