Salmos 33
1 Regozijae-vos no Senhor, vós, justos, pois aos rectos convem o louvor.
You righteous people should sing joyfully to Yahweh because that is what he deserves.
2 Louvae ao Senhor com harpa, cantae a elle com psalterio de dez cordas.
Praise Yahweh as you play songs on the lyre/harp. Praise him as you play [other] instruments that have many strings.
3 Cantae-lhe um cantico novo: tocae bem e com jubilo.
Sing a new song to him; Play those instruments well, and shout joyfully as you play them!
4 Porque a palavra do Senhor é recta, e todas as suas obras são fieis.
Yahweh always does what he says that he will do; we can trust that everything that he does is right.
5 Elle ama a justiça e o juizo: a terra está cheia da bondade do Senhor.
He loves everything that we do that is just and right. People all over the earth can know that Yahweh faithfully loves us.
6 Pela palavra do Senhor foram feitos os céus, e todo o exercito d'elles pelo espirito da sua bocca.
Yahweh created everything in the sky by commanding it. By what he said [MTY] he created all the stars.
7 Elle ajunta as aguas do mar como n'um montão; põe os abysmos em thesouros.
He gathered all the water into one huge mass like [someone scoops liquid] into a container.
8 Tema toda a terra ao Senhor; temam-n'o todos os moradores do mundo.
Everyone on the earth should revere Yahweh [DOU].
9 Porque fallou, e foi feito: mandou, e logo appareceu.
When he spoke, the world (was created/started to exist). Everything started to exist as a result of him commanding it.
10 O Senhor desfaz o conselho das nações, quebranta os intentos dos povos.
Yahweh frustrates the things that the [pagan] nations decide to do. He prevents them from doing the [evil] things that they plan to do.
11 O conselho do Senhor permanece para sempre: os intentos do seu coração de geração em geração.
But what Yahweh decides to do will last forever. What he plans to do will never be changed.
12 Bemaventurada é a nação cujo Deus é o Senhor, e o povo ao qual escolheu para sua herança.

13 O Senhor olha desde os céus e está vendo a todos os filhos dos homens.
Yahweh looks down from heaven and sees all us people;
14 Do logar da sua habitação contempla todos os moradores da terra,
from where he rules [MTY], he looks down on all the people who live on the earth.
15 Aquelle que forma o coração de todos elles, que contempla todas as suas obras.
He formed our inner beings, and he sees everything that we do.
16 Não ha rei que se salve com a grandeza d'um exercito, nem o homem valente se livra pela muita força.
It is not because a king has a great army that he is able to win [battles], and it is not because a soldier is very strong that he is able to defeat [his enemy].
17 O cavallo é fallaz para a segurança: não livra ninguem com a sua grande força.
It is foolish to trust that because horses are very strong that they will able to win a battle and save their riders.
18 Eis que os olhos do Senhor estão sobre os que o temem, sobre os que esperam na sua misericordia;
Do not forget that Yahweh watches over those who revere him, those who confidently expect him to faithfully love them.
19 Para lhes livrar as almas da morte, e para os conservar vivos na fome.
He saves them [SYN] from dying [before they should die] and preserves them when there is a famine.
20 A nossa alma espera no Senhor: elle é o nosso auxilio e o nosso escudo.
We trust that Yahweh will help us; he protects us like a shield protects a soldier [MET].
21 Pois n'elle se alegra o nosso coração; porquanto temos confiado no seu sancto nome.
We rejoice because of what he [has done for us]; we trust in him because he [MTY] is holy.
22 Seja a tua misericordia, Senhor, sobre nós, como em ti esperamos.
Yahweh, we pray that you will always faithfully love us while we confidently expect you [to do great things for us].
