Psalms 33

¹Exult, ye righteous, in Jehovah: praise is comely for the upright.

²Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp; sing psalms unto him with the ten-stringed lute.

³Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud sound.

⁴For the word of Jehovah is right, and all his work is in faithfulness.

⁵He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the loving-kindness of Jehovah.

⁶By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

⁷He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; he layeth up the deeps in storehouses.

⁸Let all the earth fear Jehovah; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

⁹For he spoke, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

¹⁰Jehovah frustrateth the counsel of the nations; he maketh the thoughts of the peoples of none effect.

¹¹The counsel of Jehovah standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.

¹²Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance!

¹³Jehovah looketh from the heavens; he beholdeth all the sons of men:

¹⁴From the place of his habitation he looketh forth upon all the inhabitants of the earth;

¹⁵He who fashioneth the hearts of them all, who considereth all their works.

¹⁶The king is not saved by the multitude of his forces; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

¹⁷The horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth he deliver by his great power.

¹⁸Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his loving-kindness,

¹⁹To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

²⁰Our soul waiteth for Jehovah: he is our help and our shield.

²¹For in him shall our heart rejoice, because we have confided in his holy name.

²²Let thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
