PSALM 33
1Rejoice
in the LORD, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright. 2
Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an
instrument of ten strings. 3 Sing unto him a new song; play
skilfully with a loud noise. 4 For the word of the LORD is
right; and all his works are done in truth. 5 He loveth
righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodnessa
of the LORD. 6 By the word of the LORD were the heavens made; and
all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. 7 He gathereth
the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in
storehouses. 8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the
inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. 9 For he spake, and
it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast. 10 The LORD
bringethb
the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of
none effect. 11 The counsel of the LORD standeth for ever, the thoughts
of his heart to allc generations.
12Blessed is
the nation whose God is the LORD; and the people whom he
hath chosen for his own inheritance. 13 The LORD looketh from
heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men. 14 From the place of his
habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth. 15 He
fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works. 16
There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not
delivered by much strength. 17 An horse is a vain thing for
safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength. 18
Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that
hope in his mercy; 19 To deliver their soul from death, and to
keep them alive in famine. 20 Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is
our help and our shield. 21 For our heart shall rejoice in him,
because we have trusted in his holy name. 22 Let thy mercy, O
LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
