< Psalms 33 >
1 Shout for joy, ye righteous, in Yahweh, To the upright, seemly is praise.
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for it becommeth vpright men to be thankefull.
2 Give ye thanks unto Yahweh with the lyre, With a harp of ten strings, make ye music unto him.
Prayse the Lord with harpe: sing vnto him with viole and instrument of ten strings.
3 Sing unto him, a song that is new, With skill, sweep the strings, with loud noise.
Sing vnto him a newe song: sing cheerefully with a loude voyce.
4 For right is the word of Yahweh, and, all his work, is in faithfulness:
For the word of the Lord is righteous, and all his workes are faithfull.
5 Who loveth righteousness and justice, With the lovingkindness of Yahweh, the earth is full.
He loueth righteousnesse and iudgement: the earth is full of the goodnesse of the Lord.
6 By the word of Yahweh, the heavens were made, and, by the spirit of his mouth, all their host:
By the worde of the Lord were the heauens made, and all the hoste of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 Who gathered as into a skin-bottle the waters of the sea, Delivering, into treasuries, the roaring deeps.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as vpon an heape, and layeth vp the depths in his treasures.
8 Let all the earth, stand in awe of Yahweh, Of him, be in dread, all ye inhabitants of the world;
Let all the earth feare the Lord: let al them that dwell in the world, feare him.
9 For, he, spake, and it was, He, commanded, and it stood forth.
For he spake, and it was done: he commanded, and it stood.
10 Yahweh, hath frustrated the counsel of nations, hath brought to nothing the devices of peoples.
The Lord breaketh the counsell of the heathen, and bringeth to nought the deuices of the people.
11 The counsel of Yahweh, to times age-abiding, shall stand, The devices of his heart, from generation to generation.
The counsell of the Lord shall stand for euer, and the thoughts of his heart throughout all ages.
12 How happy the nation whose God is, Yahweh, The people he hath chosen as his own inheritance!
Blessed is that nation, whose God is the Lord: euen the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13 Out of the heavens, hath Yahweh looked, He hath seen all the sons of men:
The Lord looketh downe from heauen, and beholdeth all the children of men.
14 Out of his settled place of abode, hath he fixed his gaze on all the inhabitants of the earth:
From the habitation of his dwelling he beholdeth all them that dwell in the earth.
15 Who fashioneth their heart all together, Who understandeth all their doings.
He facioneth their hearts euery one, and vnderstandeth all their workes.
16 Not a king, can be saved by greatness of force, nor, hero, deliver himself by greatness of strength:
The King is not saued by the multitude of an hoste, neither is the mightie man deliuered by great strength.
17 A deception, is the horse, for victory, and, by his great strength, shall he not deliver.
A horse is a vaine helpe, and shall not deliuer any by his great strength.
18 Lo! the eye of Yahweh, is toward them who revere him, unto such as are waiting for his lovingkindness:
Beholde, the eye of the Lord is vpon them that feare him, and vpon them, that trust in his mercie,
19 To rescue, from death, their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
To deliuer their soules from death, and to preserue them in famine.
20 Our own soul, hath waited for Yahweh, Our help and our shield, is he!
Our soule waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helpe and our shielde.
21 For, in him, shall our heart rejoice, For, in his holy Name, have we trusted.
Surely our heart shall reioyce in him, because we trusted in his holy Name.
22 Be thy lovingkindness, O Yahweh, upon us, According as we have waited for thee.
Let thy mercie, O Lord, be vpon vs, as we trust in thee.
