Psalm 33 (ASV) - Rejoice in Jehovah, O ye

Psa 33:1

Rejoice in Jehovah, O ye righteous:

Praise is comely for the upright.

Psa 33:2

Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp:

Sing praises unto him with the psaltery of ten strings.

Psa 33:3

Sing unto him a new song;

Play skilfully with a loud noise.

Psa 33:4

For the word of Jehovah is right;

And all his work is done in faithfulness.

Psa 33:5

He loveth righteousness and justice:

The earth is full of the lovingkindness of Jehovah.

Psa 33:6

By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made,

And all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

Psa 33:7

He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap:

He layeth up the deeps in store-houses.

Psa 33:8

Let all the earth fear Jehovah:

Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

Psa 33:9

For he spake, and it was done;

He commanded, and it stood fast.

Psa 33:10

Jehovah bringeth the counsel of the nations to nought;

He maketh the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect.

Psa 33:11

The counsel of Jehovah standeth fast for ever,

The thoughts of his heart to all generations.

Psa 33:12

Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah,

The people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

Psa 33:13

Jehovah looketh from heaven;

He beholdeth all the sons of men;

Psa 33:14

From the place of his habitation he looketh forth

Upon all the inhabitants of the earth,

Psa 33:15

He that fashioneth the hearts of them all,

That considereth all their works.

Psa 33:16

There is no king saved by the multitude of a host:

A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

Psa 33:17

A horse is a vain thing for safety;

Neither doth he deliver any by his great power.

Psa 33:18

Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him,

Upon them that hope in his lovingkindness;

Psa 33:19

To deliver their soul from death,

And to keep them alive in famine.

Psa 33:20

Our soul hath waited for Jehovah:

He is our help and our shield.

Psa 33:21

For our heart shall rejoice in him,

Because we have trusted in his holy name.

Psa 33:22

Let thy lovingkindness, O Jehovah, be upon us,

According as we have hoped in thee.
