33:1 Sing for joy in the LORD, O you righteous ones; Praise is becoming to the upright. |
33:2 Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre; Sing praises to Him with a harp of ten strings. |
33:3 Sing to Him a new song; Play skillfully with a shout of joy. |
33:4 For the word of the LORD is upright, And all His work is {done} in faithfulness. |
33:5 He loves righteousness and justice; The earth is full of the lovingkindness of the LORD. |
33:6 By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host. |
33:7 He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He lays up the deeps in storehouses. |
33:8 Let all the earth fear the LORD; Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him. |
33:9 For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. |
33:10 The LORD nullifies the counsel of the nations; He frustrates the plans of the peoples. |
33:11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, The plans of His heart from generation to generation. |
33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance. |
33:13 The LORD looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men; |
33:14 From His dwelling place He looks out On all the inhabitants of the earth, |
33:15 He who fashions the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works. |
33:16 The king is not saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not delivered by great strength. |
33:17 A horse is a false hope for victory; Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength. |
33:18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope for His lovingkindness, |
33:19 To deliver their soul from death And to keep them alive in famine. |
33:20 Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. |
33:21 For our heart rejoices in Him, Because we trust in His holy name. |
33:22 Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, According as we have hoped in You. |
