Psalms 33
1 Rejoice in Yhwh, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
Sing, you righteous, in YHWH, [For] praise from upright ones [is] lovely.
2 Praise Yhwh with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
Give thanks to YHWH with a harp, With stringed instrument of ten strings sing praise to Him,
3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
Sing to Him a new song, Play skillfully with shouting.
4 For the word of Yhwh is right; and all his works are done in truth.
For the word of YHWH [is] upright, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of Yhwh.
Loving righteousness and judgment, The earth is full of the kindness of YHWH.
6 By the word of Yhwh were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
By the word of YHWH The heavens have been made, And all their host by the breath of His mouth.
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
Gathering the waters of the sea as a heap, Putting the depths in treasuries.
8 Let all the earth fear Yhwh: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
All the earth is afraid of YHWH, All the inhabitants of the world are afraid of Him.
9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
For He has spoken, and it is, He has commanded, and it stands.
10 Yhwh bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
YHWH made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
11 The counsel of Yhwh standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
The counsel of YHWH stands for all time, The thoughts of His heart from generation to generation.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is Yhwh; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
O the blessedness of the nation whose God [is] YHWH, Of the people He chose, For an inheritance to Him.
13 Yhwh looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
YHWH has looked from the heavens, He has seen all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked to all inhabitants of the earth;
15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending to all their works.
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And he does not deliver By the abundance of his strength.
18 Behold, the eye of Yhwh is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
Behold, the eye of YHWH [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 their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for Yhwh: he is our help and our shield.
Our soul has waited for YHWH, He [is] our help and our shield,
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
For our heart rejoices in Him, For we have trusted in His Holy Name.
22 Let thy mercy, O Yhwh, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
Let Your kindness, O YHWH, be on us, As we have waited for You!
