Context of Psalms 33:8
6By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, And all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. 7He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap: He layeth up the deeps in store-houses. Let all the earth fear Jehovah: Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. 9For he spake, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast. 10Jehovah bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought; He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.
