King James VersionPsalms33

Psalms

1 Re­joice in the LORD, O ye righ­teous: for praise is come­ly for the up­right.
2 Praise the LORD with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an in­stru­ment of ten strings.
3 Sing unto him a new song; play skil­ful­ly with a loud noise.
4 For the word of the LORD is right; and all his works are done in truth.
5 He loveth righ­teous­ness and judg­ment: the earth is full of the good­ness of the LORD.
6 By the word of the LORD were the heav­ens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7 He gath­ereth the wa­ters of the sea to­geth­er as an heap: he layeth up the depth in store­hous­es.
8 Let all the earth fear the LORD: let all the in­hab­i­tants of the world stand in awe of him.
9 For he spake, and it was done; he com­mand­ed, and it stood fast.
10 The LORD bringeth the coun­sel of the hea­then to nought: he maketh the de­vices of the peo­ple of none ef­fect.
11 The coun­sel of the LORD standeth for ev­er, the thoughts of his heart to all gen­er­a­tions.
12 Blessed is the na­tion whose God is the LORD; and the peo­ple whom he hath cho­sen for his own in­her­i­tance.
13 The LORD looketh from heav­en; he be­hold­eth all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habi­ta­tion he looketh upon all the in­hab­i­tants of the earth.
15 He fash­ioneth their hearts alike; he con­sid­ereth all their works.
16 There is no king saved by the mul­ti­tude of an host: a mighty man is not de­liv­ered by much strength.
17 An horse is a vain thing for safe­ty: nei­ther shall he de­liv­er any by his great strength.
18 Be­hold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mer­cy;
19 To de­liv­er their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul wait­eth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart shall re­joice in him, be­cause we have trust­ed in his holy name.
22 Let thy mer­cy, O LORD, be upon us, ac­cord­ing as we hope in thee.
