< Psalms 33 >

1 Rejoice in Yhwh, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
רַנְּנוּ צַדִּיקִים בַּֽיהֹוָה לַיְשָׁרִים נָאוָה תְהִלָּֽה׃
2 Praise Yhwh with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.
הוֹדוּ לַיהֹוָה בְּכִנּוֹר בְּנֵבֶל עָשׂוֹר זַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹ׃
3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
שִֽׁירוּ־לוֹ שִׁיר חָדָשׁ הֵיטִיבוּ נַגֵּן בִּתְרוּעָֽה׃
4 For the word of Yhwh is right; and all his works are done in truth.
כִּֽי־יָשָׁר דְּבַר־יְהֹוָה וְכׇל־מַעֲשֵׂהוּ בֶּאֱמוּנָֽה׃
5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of Yhwh.
אֹהֵב צְדָקָה וּמִשְׁפָּט חֶסֶד יְהֹוָה מָלְאָה הָאָֽרֶץ׃
6 By the word of Yhwh were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
בִּדְבַר יְהֹוָה שָׁמַיִם נַעֲשׂוּ וּבְרוּחַ פִּיו כׇּל־צְבָאָֽם׃
7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.
כֹּנֵס כַּנֵּד מֵי הַיָּם נֹתֵן בְּאוֹצָרוֹת תְּהוֹמֽוֹת׃
8 Let all the earth fear Yhwh: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
יִֽירְאוּ מֵיְהֹוָה כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ מִמֶּנּוּ יָגוּרוּ כׇּל־יֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵֽל׃
9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
כִּי הוּא אָמַר וַיֶּהִי הֽוּא־צִוָּה וַֽיַּעֲמֹֽד׃
10 Yhwh bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
יְֽהֹוָה הֵפִיר עֲצַת־גּוֹיִם הֵנִיא מַחְשְׁבוֹת עַמִּֽים׃
11 The counsel of Yhwh standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
עֲצַת יְהֹוָה לְעוֹלָם תַּעֲמֹד מַחְשְׁבוֹת לִבּוֹ לְדֹר וָדֹֽר׃
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is Yhwh; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
אַשְׁרֵי הַגּוֹי אֲשֶׁר־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהָיו הָעָם ׀ בָּחַר לְנַחֲלָה לֽוֹ׃
13 Yhwh looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
מִשָּׁמַיִם הִבִּיט יְהֹוָה רָאָה אֶֽת־כׇּל־בְּנֵי הָאָדָֽם׃
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
מִֽמְּכוֹן־שִׁבְתּוֹ הִשְׁגִּיחַ אֶל כׇּל־יֹשְׁבֵי הָאָֽרֶץ׃
15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
הַיֹּצֵר יַחַד לִבָּם הַמֵּבִין אֶל־כׇּל־מַעֲשֵׂיהֶֽם׃
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an army: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
אֵֽין־הַמֶּלֶךְ נוֹשָׁע בְּרׇב־חָיִל גִּבּוֹר לֹא־יִנָּצֵל בְּרׇב־כֹּֽחַ׃
17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
שֶׁקֶר הַסּוּס לִתְשׁוּעָה וּבְרֹב חֵילוֹ לֹא יְמַלֵּֽט׃
18 Behold, the eye of Yhwh is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
הִנֵּה עֵין יְהֹוָה אֶל־יְרֵאָיו לַֽמְיַחֲלִים לְחַסְדּֽוֹ׃
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
לְהַצִּיל מִמָּוֶת נַפְשָׁם וּלְחַיּוֹתָם בָּרָעָֽב׃
20 Our soul waiteth for Yhwh: he is our help and our shield.
נַפְשֵׁנוּ חִכְּתָה לַֽיהֹוָה עֶזְרֵנוּ וּמָגִנֵּנוּ הֽוּא׃
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
כִּי־בוֹ יִשְׂמַח לִבֵּנוּ כִּי בְשֵׁם קׇדְשׁוֹ בָטָֽחְנוּ׃
22 Let thy mercy, O Yhwh, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
יְהִי־חַסְדְּךָ יְהֹוָה עָלֵינוּ כַּאֲשֶׁר יִחַלְנוּ לָֽךְ׃
