Ψαλμοί 33
1 τῷ Δαυιδ ἀγαλλιᾶσθε δίκαιοι ἐν τῷ κυρίῳ τοῖς εὐθέσι πρέπει αἴνεσις
Rejoice in the LORD, O righteous ones; it is fitting for the upright to praise Him.
2 ἐξομολογεῖσθε τῷ κυρίῳ ἐν κιθάρᾳ ἐν ψαλτηρίῳ δεκαχόρδῳ ψάλατε αὐτῷ
Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to Him with ten strings.
3 ᾄσατε αὐτῷ ᾆσμα καινόν καλῶς ψάλατε ἐν ἀλαλαγμῷ
Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully with a shout of joy.
4 ὅτι εὐθὴς ὁ λόγος τοῦ κυρίου καὶ πάντα τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ ἐν πίστει
For the word of the LORD is upright, and all His work is trustworthy.
5 ἀγαπᾷ ἐλεημοσύνην καὶ κρίσιν τοῦ ἐλέους κυρίου πλήρης ἡ γῆ
The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of His loving devotion.
6 τῷ λόγῳ τοῦ κυρίου οἱ οὐρανοὶ ἐστερεώθησαν καὶ τῷ πνεύματι τοῦ στόματος αὐτοῦ πᾶσα ἡ δύναμις αὐτῶν
By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and all the stars by the breath of His mouth.
7 συνάγων ὡς ἀσκὸν ὕδατα θαλάσσης τιθεὶς ἐν θησαυροῖς ἀβύσσους
He piles up the waters of the sea; He puts the depths into storehouses.
8 φοβηθήτω τὸν κύριον πᾶσα ἡ γῆ ἀπ’ αὐτοῦ δὲ σαλευθήτωσαν πάντες οἱ κατοικοῦντες τὴν οἰκουμένην
Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere Him.
9 ὅτι αὐτὸς εἶπεν καὶ ἐγενήθησαν αὐτὸς ἐνετείλατο καὶ ἐκτίσθησαν
For He spoke, and it came to be; He commanded, and it stood firm.
10 κύριος διασκεδάζει βουλὰς ἐθνῶν ἀθετεῖ δὲ λογισμοὺς λαῶν καὶ ἀθετεῖ βουλὰς ἀρχόντων
The LORD frustrates the plans of the nations; He thwarts the devices of the peoples.
11 ἡ δὲ βουλὴ τοῦ κυρίου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα μένει λογισμοὶ τῆς καρδίας αὐτοῦ εἰς γενεὰν καὶ γενεάν
The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations.
12 μακάριον τὸ ἔθνος οὗ ἐστιν κύριος ὁ θεὸς αὐτοῦ λαός ὃν ἐξελέξατο εἰς κληρονομίαν ἑαυτῷ
Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance!
13 ἐξ οὐρανοῦ ἐπέβλεψεν ὁ κύριος εἶδεν πάντας τοὺς υἱοὺς τῶν ἀνθρώπων
The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.
14 ἐξ ἑτοίμου κατοικητηρίου αὐτοῦ ἐπέβλεψεν ἐπὶ πάντας τοὺς κατοικοῦντας τὴν γῆν
From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth.
15 ὁ πλάσας κατὰ μόνας τὰς καρδίας αὐτῶν ὁ συνιεὶς εἰς πάντα τὰ ἔργα αὐτῶν
He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works.
16 οὐ σῴζεται βασιλεὺς διὰ πολλὴν δύναμιν καὶ γίγας οὐ σωθήσεται ἐν πλήθει ἰσχύος αὐτοῦ
No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength.
17 ψευδὴς ἵππος εἰς σωτηρίαν ἐν δὲ πλήθει δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ οὐ σωθήσεται
A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save.
18 ἰδοὺ οἱ ὀφθαλμοὶ κυρίου ἐπὶ τοὺς φοβουμένους αὐτὸν τοὺς ἐλπίζοντας ἐπὶ τὸ ἔλεος αὐτοῦ
Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion
19 ῥύσασθαι ἐκ θανάτου τὰς ψυχὰς αὐτῶν καὶ διαθρέψαι αὐτοὺς ἐν λιμῷ
to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
20 ἡ ψυχὴ ἡμῶν ὑπομένει τῷ κυρίῳ ὅτι βοηθὸς καὶ ὑπερασπιστὴς ἡμῶν ἐστιν
Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
21 ὅτι ἐν αὐτῷ εὐφρανθήσεται ἡ καρδία ἡμῶν καὶ ἐν τῷ ὀνόματι τῷ ἁγίῳ αὐτοῦ ἠλπίσαμεν
For our hearts rejoice in Him, since we trust in His holy name.
22 γένοιτο τὸ ἔλεός σου κύριε ἐφ’ ἡμᾶς καθάπερ ἠλπίσαμεν ἐπὶ σέ
May Your loving devotion rest on us, O LORD, as we put our hope in You.
