Psalm
Psalm 33
| 1 |
Rejoice 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 goodness 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 bringeth 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 all generations.
|
| 12 |
Blessed 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.
