Psalms 33
1 [A Psalm] of David. Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; praise becomes the upright.
Shout for joy, ye righteous, in Yahweh, To the upright, seemly is praise.
2 Praise the Lord on the harp; platy to him on a lute of ten strings.
Give ye thanks unto Yahweh with the lyre, With a harp of ten strings, make ye music unto him.
3 Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
Sing unto him, a song that is new, With skill, sweep the strings, with loud noise.
4 For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are faithful.
For right is the word of Yahweh, and, all his work, is in faithfulness:
5 He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full the mercy of the Lord.
Who loveth righteousness and justice, With the lovingkindness of Yahweh, the earth is full.
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 Yahweh, the heavens were made, and, by the spirit of his mouth, all their host:
7 Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the deeps in treasuries.
Who gathered as into a skin-bottle the waters of the sea, Delivering, into treasuries, the roaring deeps.
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, stand in awe of Yahweh, Of him, be in dread, all ye inhabitants of the world;
9 For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
For, he, spake, and it was, He, commanded, and it stood forth.
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.
Yahweh, hath frustrated the counsel of nations, hath brought to nothing the devices of peoples.
11 But the counsel of the Lord endures for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.
The counsel of Yahweh, to times age-abiding, shall stand, The devices of his heart, from generation to generation.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.
How happy the nation whose God is, Yahweh, The people he hath chosen as his own inheritance!
13 The Lord looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
Out of the heavens, hath Yahweh looked, He hath seen all the sons of men:
14 He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the earth;
Out of his settled place of abode, hath he fixed his gaze on all the inhabitants of the earth:
15 who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
Who fashioneth their heart all together, Who understandeth all their doings.
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.
Not a king, can be saved by greatness of force, nor, hero, deliver himself by greatness of strength:
17 A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.
A deception, is the horse, for victory, and, by his great strength, shall he not deliver.
18 Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him, those that hope in his mercy;
Lo! the eye of Yahweh, is toward them who revere him, unto such as are waiting for his lovingkindness:
19 to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
To rescue, from death, their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waits on the Lord; for he is our helper and defender.
Our own soul, hath waited for Yahweh, Our help and our shield, is he!
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy name.
For, in him, shall our heart rejoice, For, in his holy Name, have we trusted.
22 Let your mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we have hoped in you.
Be thy lovingkindness, O Yahweh, upon us, According as we have waited for thee.
