Psalm 33 - NKJV Bible Online

Psalm 33

Rejoice ^ain the Lord, O you righteous!

For praise from the upright is beautiful.

Praise the Lord with the harp;

¹Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.

Sing to Him a new song;

Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

For the word of the Lord is right,

And all His work is done in truth.

He loves righteousness and justice;

The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

^aBy the word of the Lord the heavens were made,

And all the ^bhost of them ^cby the breath of His mouth.

^aHe gathers the waters of the sea together ¹as a heap;

He lays up the deep in storehouses.

Let all the earth fear the Lord;

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

For ^aHe spoke, and it was done;

He commanded, and it stood fast.

^aThe Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;

He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.

^aThe counsel of the Lord stands forever,

The plans of His heart to all generations.

Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord,

The people He has ^achosen as His own inheritance.

^aThe Lord looks from heaven;

He sees all the sons of men.

From the place of His dwelling He looks

On all the inhabitants of the earth;

He fashions their hearts individually;

^aHe ¹considers all their works.

^aNo king is saved by the multitude of an army;

A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

^aA horse is a ¹vain hope for safety;

Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.

^aBehold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,

On those who hope in His mercy,

To deliver their soul from death,

And ^ato keep them alive in famine.

Our soul waits for the Lord;

He is our help and our shield.

For our heart shall rejoice in Him,

Because we have trusted in His holy name.

Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us,

Just as we hope in You.
