Psalm 33

1 Sing joyfully to theLord, you righteous;

it is fitting for the upright to praise him.

2 Praise theLordwith the harp;

make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.

3 Sing to him a new song;

play skillfully, and shout for joy.

4 For the word of theLordis right and true;

he is faithful in all he does.

5 TheLordloves righteousness and justice;

the earth is full of his unfailing love.

6 By the word of theLordthe heavens were made,

their starry host by the breath of his mouth.

7 He gathers the waters of the sea into jars;

he puts the deep into storehouses.

8 Let all the earth fear theLord;

let all the people of the world revere him.

9 For he spoke, and it came to be;

he commanded, and it stood firm.

10 TheLordfoils the plans of the nations;

he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.

11 But the plans of theLordstand firm forever,

the purposes of his heart through all generations.

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is theLord,

the people he chose for his inheritance.

13 From heaven theLordlooks down

and sees all mankind;

14 from his dwelling place he watches

all who live on earth—

15 he who forms the hearts of all,

who considers everything they do.

16 No king is saved by the size of his army;

no warrior escapes by his great strength.

17 A horse is a vain hope for deliverance;

despite all its great strength it cannot save.

18 But the eyes of theLordare on those who fear him,

on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,

19 to deliver them from death

and keep them alive in famine.

20 We wait in hope for theLord;

he is our help and our shield.

21 In him our hearts rejoice,

for we trust in his holy name.

22 May your unfailing love be with us,Lord,

even as we put our hope in you.
