Psalm 33
Praise to the Creator
1Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous ones;
2Praise the Lord with the lyre;
play skillfully on the strings, with a joyful shout.33:3 Ps 150:4
4For the word of the Lord is right,
and all his work is trustworthy.33:4 Ps 19:8
the earth is full of the Lord’s unfailing love.33:5 Ps 119:64
7He gathers the water of the sea into a heap;33:7 LXX, Tg, Syr, Vg, Jer read sea as in a bottle
8Let the whole earth fear the Lord;
9For he spoke, and it came into being;
10The Lord frustrates the counsel of the nations;
11The counsel of the Lord stands forever,
12Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord —
13The Lord looks down from heaven;
14He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth
from his dwelling place.33:14 Ps 102:19
15He forms the hearts of them all;
he considers all their works.33:15 Jb 34:21
16A king is not saved by a large army;
17The horse is a false hope for safety;
18But look, the Lord keeps his eye on those who fear him —
19to rescue them from death
because we trust in his holy name.33:21 Zph 3:12
22May your faithful love rest on us, Lord,
