33:1 Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous ones; praise is becoming for the upright. |
33:2 Praise the LORD with a lyre; sing unto Him with a harp of ten strings. |
33:3 Sing unto Him a new song; play skillfully with shouts of joy, |
33:4 For the Word of the LORD is upright; and all His works are 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 were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of His mouth. |
33:7 He gathered the waters of the sea together like a heap, putting the depths 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 brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; He frustrates the plans of the people. |
33:11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the thoughts of His heart to all generations. |
33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, and the people He has chosen for His own inheritance. |
33:13 The LORD looks down from heaven; He beholds all the sons of men. |
33:14 From His dwelling place He looks intently upon all the inhabitants of the earth. |
33:15 Together He fashions their hearts alike; He considers all their works. |
33:16 The king is not saved by a great army; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. |
33:17 A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither shall it deliver any by its great strength. |
33:18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon those who fear Him, upon those who hope in 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 shall rejoice in Him because we have trusted in His holy name. |
33:22 Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, according as we hope in You. |
