[A Psalm] of David. 33:1 Rejoice in the
Yehovah, ye righteous; praise becomes the upright.
33:2 Praise Yehovah on the harp; platy to him on a psaltery of ten strings.
33:3 Sing to him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
33:4 For the word of Yehovah is right; and all his works are faithful.
33:5 He loves mercy and judgment; the earth is full the mercy of Yehovah.
33:6 By the word of Yehovah the heavens were established; and all the host
of them by the breath of his [mouth].
33:7 Who gathers the waters of the sea as [in] a bottle; who lays up the
deeps in treasuries.
33:8 Let all the earth fear Yehovah; and let all that dwell in the world be
moved because of him.
33:9 For he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
33:10 Yehovah frustrates the counsels of the nations; he brings to nought
also the reasonings of the peoples, and brings to nought the counsels of
princes.
33:11 But the counsel of Yehovah endures for ever, the thoughts of his
heart from generation to generation.
33:12 Blessed is the nation whose Elohim is Yehovah; the people whom he has
chosen for his own inheritance.
33:13 Yehovah looks out of heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
33:14 He looks from his prepared habitation on all the dwellers on the
earth;
33:15 who fashioned their hearts alone; who understands all their works.
33:16 A king is not saved by reason of a great host; and a giant shall not
be delivered by the greatness of his strength.
33:17 A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the
greatness of his power.
33:18 Behold, the eyes of Yehovah are on them that fear him, those that
hope in his mercy;
33:19 to deliver their souls from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
33:20 Our soul waits on Yehovah; for he is our helper and defender.
33:21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, and we have hoped in his holy
name.
33:22 Let thy mercy, O Yehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee. |
33:1 Rejoice in Yehovah, O ye
righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.
33:2 Praise Yehovah with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an
instrument of ten strings.
33:3 Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.
33:4 For the word of Yehovah is right; and all his works are done in truth.
33:5 He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness
of Yehovah.
33:6 By the word of Yehovah were the heavens made; and all the host of them
by the breath of his mouth.
33:7 He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up
the depth in storehouses.
33:8 Let all the earth fear Yehovah: let all the inhabitants of the world
stand in awe of him.
33:9 For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.
33:10 Yehovah bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the
devices of the people of none effect.
33:11 The counsel of Yehovah standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart
to all generations.
33:12 Blessed is the nation whose Elohim is Yehovah; and the people whom he
hath chosen for his own inheritance.
33:13 Yehovah looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
33:14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants
of the earth.
33:15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
33:16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is
not delivered by much strength.
33:17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by
his great strength.
33:18 Behold, the eye of Yehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that
hope in his mercy;
33:19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
33:20 Our soul waiteth for Yehovah: he is our help and our shield.
33:21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his
holy name.
33:22 Let thy mercy, O Yehovah, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. |
