Psalms 33
1 Shout for joy, ye righteous, in Yahweh, To the upright, seemly is praise.
Sing, you righteous, in YHWH, [For] praise from upright ones [is] lovely.
2 Give ye thanks unto Yahweh with the lyre, With a harp of ten strings, make ye music unto him.
Give thanks to YHWH with a harp, With stringed instrument of ten strings sing praise to Him,
3 Sing unto him, a song that is new, With skill, sweep the strings, with loud noise.
Sing to Him a new song, Play skillfully with shouting.
4 For right is the word of Yahweh, and, all his work, is in faithfulness:
For the word of YHWH [is] upright, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
5 Who loveth righteousness and justice, With the lovingkindness of Yahweh, the earth is full.
Loving righteousness and judgment, The earth is full of the kindness of YHWH.
6 By the word of Yahweh, the heavens were made, and, by the spirit of his mouth, all their host:
By the word of YHWH The heavens have been made, And all their host 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.
Gathering the waters of the sea as a heap, Putting the depths in treasuries.
8 Let all the earth, stand in awe of Yahweh, Of him, be in dread, all ye inhabitants of the world;
All the earth is afraid of YHWH, All the inhabitants of the world are afraid of Him.
9 For, he, spake, and it was, He, commanded, and it stood forth.
For He has spoken, and it is, He has commanded, and it stands.
10 Yahweh, hath frustrated the counsel of nations, hath brought to nothing the devices of peoples.
YHWH made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
11 The counsel of Yahweh, to times age-abiding, shall stand, The devices of his heart, from generation to generation.
The counsel of YHWH stands for all time, The thoughts of His heart from generation to generation.
12 How happy the nation whose God is, Yahweh, The people he hath chosen as his own inheritance!
O the blessedness of the nation whose God [is] YHWH, Of the people He chose, For an inheritance to Him.
13 Out of the heavens, hath Yahweh looked, He hath seen all the sons of men:
YHWH has looked from the heavens, He has seen all the sons of men.
14 Out of his settled place of abode, hath he fixed his gaze on all the inhabitants of the earth:
From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked to all inhabitants of the earth;
15 Who fashioneth their heart all together, Who understandeth all their doings.
Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending to all their works.
16 Not a king, can be saved by greatness of force, nor, hero, deliver himself by greatness of strength:
The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
17 A deception, is the horse, for victory, and, by his great strength, shall he not deliver.
A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And he does not deliver By the abundance of his strength.
18 Lo! the eye of Yahweh, is toward them who revere him, unto such as are waiting for his lovingkindness:
Behold, the eye of YHWH [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
19 To rescue, from death, their soul, and to keep them alive in famine.
To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our own soul, hath waited for Yahweh, Our help and our shield, is he!
Our soul has waited for YHWH, He [is] our help and our shield,
21 For, in him, shall our heart rejoice, For, in his holy Name, have we trusted.
For our heart rejoices in Him, For we have trusted in His Holy Name.
22 Be thy lovingkindness, O Yahweh, upon us, According as we have waited for thee.
Let Your kindness, O YHWH, be on us, As we have waited for You!
