Psalm 33

Revised Version 1895

1RejoiceH7442 in the LORDH3068, O ye righteousH6662: praiseH8416 is comelyH5000 for the uprightH3477.

2GiveH3034 thanksH3034 unto the LORDH3068 with harpH3658: singH2167 praisesH2167 unto him with the psaltery of tenH6218 stringsH6218.

3SingH7891 unto him a newH2319 songH7892; playH5059 skilfully with a loud noise.

4For the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 is rightH3477; and allH3605 his workH4639 is doneH4639 in faithfulnessH530.

5He loveth righteousnessH6666 and judgmentH4941: the earthH776 is fullH4390 of the lovingkindness of the LORDH3068.

6By the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068 were the heavensH8064 madeH6213; and allH3605 the hostH6635 of them by the breathH7307 of his mouthH6310.

7He gathereth the watersH4325 of the seaH3220 togetherH3220 as an heapH5414: he layeth upH5414 the deepsH8415 in storehousesH214.

8Let allH3605 the earthH776 fearH3372 the LORDH3068: let allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the worldH8398 standH3427 in awe of him.

9For he spake, and it was doneH1961; he commandedH6680, and it stoodH5975 fast.

10The LORDH3068 bringeth the counselH6098 of the nationsH1471 to nought: he maketh the thoughtsH4284 of the peoplesH5971 to be of none effect.

11The counselH6098 of the LORDH3068 standeth fast for everH5769, the thoughtsH4284 of his heartH3820 to allH1755 generationsH1755.

12BlessedH835 is the nationH1471 whoseH834 GodH430 is the LORDH3068; the peopleH5971 whomH834 he hath chosenH977 for his own inheritanceH5159.

13The LORDH3068 looketh from heavenH8064; he beholdeth allH3605 the sonsH1121 of menH120;

14From the placeH4349 of his habitation he looketh forth uponH413 allH3605 the inhabitantsH3427 of the earthH776;

15He that fashioneth the heartsH3820 of them allH3605, that considereth allH3605 their worksH4639.

16There is noH3808 kingH4428 savedH3467 by the multitudeH7230 of an host: a mightyH1368 manH1368 is notH3808 deliveredH5337 by greatH7230 strengthH3581.

17An horseH5483 is a vainH8267 thing for safety: neitherH3808 shall he deliverH4422 anyH4422 by his greatH7230 powerH2428.

18BeholdH2009, the eyeH5869 of the LORDH3068 is uponH413 them that fearH3373 him, uponH413 them that hopeH3176 in his mercyH3068;

19To deliverH5337 their soulH5315 from deathH4194, and to keep them aliveH2421 in famineH7458.

20Our soulH5315 hath waitedH2442 for the LORDH3068: he is our helpH5828 and our shieldH4043.

21For our heartH3820 shall rejoiceH8055 in him, becauseH3588 weH3588 have trustedH982 in his holyH6944 nameH8034.

22LetH1961 thy mercyH3068, O LORDH3068, be uponH5921 usH5921, accordingH5921 as weH834 have hopedH3176 in thee.
