< Psalms 33 >

1 Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise [is] comely.
Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for it becommeth vpright men to be thankefull.
2 Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him,
Prayse the Lord with harpe: sing vnto him with viole and instrument of ten strings.
3 Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.
Sing vnto him a newe song: sing cheerefully with a loude voyce.
4 For upright [is] the word of Jehovah, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.
For the word of the Lord is righteous, and all his workes are faithfull.
5 Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of Jehovah is the earth full.
He loueth righteousnesse and iudgement: the earth is full of the goodnesse of the Lord.
6 By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath 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 Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in treasuries the depths.
He gathereth the waters of the sea together as vpon an heape, and layeth vp the depths in his treasures.
8 Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid.
Let all the earth feare the Lord: let al them that dwell in the world, feare him.
9 For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth.
For he spake, and it was done: he commanded, and it stood.
10 Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.
The Lord breaketh the counsell of the heathen, and bringeth to nought the deuices of the people.
11 The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations.
The counsell of the Lord shall stand for euer, and the thoughts of his heart throughout all ages.
12 O the happiness of the nation whose God [is] Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.
Blessed is that nation, whose God is the Lord: euen the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance.
13 From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men.
The Lord looketh downe from heauen, and beholdeth all the children of men.
14 From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth;
From the habitation of his dwelling he beholdeth all them that dwell in the earth.
15 Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works.
He facioneth their hearts euery one, and vnderstandeth all their workes.
16 The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.
The King is not saued by the multitude of an hoste, neither is the mightie man deliuered by great strength.
17 A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.
A horse is a vaine helpe, and shall not deliuer any by his great strength.
18 Lo, the eye of Jehovah [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
Beholde, the eye of the Lord is vpon them that feare him, and vpon them, that trust in his mercie,
19 To deliver 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 soul hath waited for Jehovah, 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 doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we have trusted.
Surely our heart shall reioyce in him, because we trusted in his holy Name.
22 Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited for Thee!
Let thy mercie, O Lord, be vpon vs, as we trust in thee.
