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