Psalms 33

PSALM 33
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice;
it comely is and right,
That upright men, with thankful voice,
should praise the Lord of might.
2Praise God with harp, and unto him
sing with the psaltery;
Upon a ten-string'd instrument
make ye sweet melody.
3A new song to him sing, and play
with loud noise skilfully;
4For right is God's word, all his works
are done in verity.
5To judgment and to righteousness
a love he beareth still;
The loving-kindness of the Lord
the earth throughout doth fill.
6The heavens by the word of God
did their beginning take;
And by the breathing of his mouth
he all their hosts did make.
7The waters of the seas he brings
together as an heap;
And in storehouses, as it were,
he layeth up the deep.
8Let earth, and all that live therein,
with rev'rence fear the Lord;
Let all the world's inhabitants
dread him with one accord.
9For he did speak the word, and done
it was without delay;
Established it firmly stood,
whatever he did say.
10God doth the counsel bring to nought
which heathen folk do take;
And what the people do devise
of none effect doth make.
11O but the counsel of the Lord
doth stand for ever sure;
And of his heart the purposes
from age to age endure.
12That nation blessed is, whose God
JEHOVAH is, and those
A blessed people are, whom for
his heritage he chose.
13The Lord from heav'n sees and beholds
all sons of men full well:
14He views all from his dwelling-place
that in the earth do dwell.
15He forms their hearts alike, and all
their doings he observes.
16Great hosts save not a king, much strength
no mighty man preserves.
17An horse for preservation
is a deceitful thing;
And by the greatness of his strength
can no deliv'rance bring.
18Behold on those that do him fear
the Lord doth set his eye;
Ev'n those who on his mercy do
with confidence rely.
19From death to free their soul, in dearth
life unto them to yield.
20Our soul doth wait upon the Lord;
he is our help and shield.
21Sith in his holy name we trust,
our heart shall joyful be.
22Lord, let thy mercy be on us,
as we do hope in thee.

Tehillim 33
33
1Sing with joy in Hashem, O ye tzaddikim; for tehillah is fitting for the yesharim (upright ones).
2Hodu l'Hashem with kinnor (harp); make music unto Him with the ten stringed nevel (lyre).
3Sing unto Him a shir chadash (new song); play skillfully with a teru'ah (shout of joy).
4For the Devar Hashem is yashar; and kol ma'aseihu (all His deeds) are done in emunah (faithfulness).
5He loveth Tzedakah and Mishpat; ha'aretz is full of the chesed Hashem.
6By the Devar Hashem were Shomayim made; and all the tz'va (host) of them by the ruach (breath) of His mouth.#33:6 MJ 11:3; Jn 1:1; Ps 56:5
7He gathereth the mey hayam (waters of the sea) like a mound; He layeth up the tehomot (ocean depths) in otzarot (storehouses, vaults).
8Let kol ha'aretz fear Hashem; let kol yoshvei tevel (all the inhabitants of the world) stand in awe of Him.
9For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood firm.
10 Hashem annuls the atzat Goyim (plan of the Goyim); He foils the machsh'vot Amim (schemes of the peoples).
11The atzat Hashem standeth firm l'olam, the machsh'vot of His lev l'dor va'dor (from generation to generation).
12Ashrei is the Goy whose Elohav is Hashem; and HaAm whom He hath chosen for His own nachalah.
13 Hashem looketh down from Shomayim: He beholdeth kol Bnei HaAdam.
14From the place of His habitation He looketh upon kol yoshvei ha'aretz.
15He formeth their hearts yachad; He considereth all their ma'asim (deeds).
16There is no melech saved by the multitude of an army; a gibbor is not delivered by rav ko'ach.
17A sus is a sheker (vain, false thing) for teshu'ah (deliverance, salvation, safety); neither shall it save any by its great strength.
18Hinei, the eye of Hashem is upon them that fear Him, upon them that hope in His chesed;
19To deliver their nefesh from mavet (death), and to keep them alive in ra'av (famine).
20Our nefesh waiteth for Hashem; He is ezreinu (our help) and moginneinu (our shield).
21For libeinu (our heart) shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted b'Shem Kadsho (in His holy Name).
22Let Thy chesed, Hashem, be upon us, even as we have hoped in Thee.
