Psalms 33 [Context] [Commentary] 
|
| 1. |
Rejoice in Yahweh, you righteous! Praise is fitting for the upright. |
| 2. |
Give thanks to Yahweh with the lyre. Sing praises to him with the harp of ten strings. |
| 3. |
Sing to him a new song. Play skillfully with a shout of joy! |
| 4. |
For the word of Yahweh is right. All his work is done in faithfulness. |
| 5. |
He loves righteousness and justice. The earth is full of the loving kindness of Yahweh. |
| 6. |
By Yahweh's word, the heavens were made; all their army by the breath of his mouth. |
| 7. |
He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap. He lays up the deeps in storehouses. |
| 8. |
Let all the earth fear Yahweh. Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him. |
| 9. |
For he spoke, and it was done. He commanded, and it stood firm. |
| 10. |
Yahweh brings the counsel of the nations to nothing. He makes the thoughts of the peoples to be of no effect. |
| 11. |
The counsel of Yahweh stands fast forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations. |
| 12. |
Blessed is the nation whose God is Yahweh, the people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance. |
| 13. |
Yahweh looks from heaven. He sees all the sons of men. |
| 14. |
From the place of his habitation he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth, |
| 15. |
he who fashions all of their hearts; and he considers all of their works. |
| 16. |
There is no king saved by the multitude of an army. A mighty man is not delivered by great strength. |
| 17. |
A horse is a vain thing for safety, neither does he deliver any by his great power. |
| 18. |
Behold, Yahweh's eye is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his loving kindness; |
| 19. |
to deliver their soul from death, to keep them alive in famine. |
| 20. |
Our soul has waited for Yahweh. He is our help and our shield. |
| 21. |
For our heart rejoices in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. |
| 22. |
Let your loving kindness be on us, Yahweh, since we have hoped in you. By David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed. |
