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.

Psalms 33
33
1Rejoice in the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], O you2f righteous: [for] praise is comely (attractive; proper (one’s own; peculiar; particular); becoming) for the upright.
2Praise the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] with harp: sing unto him with the Psaltery (stringed instrument, like an harp) [and] an instrument of ten strings.
3Sing unto him a new song; play skillfully with a loud noise.
4For the word of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [is] right; and all his works [are done] in truth.
5He loves righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate].
6By the word of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.
7He gathers the waters of the sea together as an heap: he lays up the depth in storehouses.
8Let all the earth fear the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9For he spoke, and it was [done]; he commanded, and it stood fast.
10The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] brings the counsel of the heathen to nothing (bad; vain): he makes the devices of the people of none effect.
11The counsel of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] stands forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12Blessed (Favored by God; happy; prosperous) [is] the nation whose God-Elōhīm (The Living Word) [The Many Powered] [is] the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]; [and] the people [whom] he has chosen for his own inheritance.
13The Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] looks from heaven; he beholds all the sons of men.
14From the place of his habitation he looks upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15He fashions their hearts alike; he considers all their works.
16There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17An horse [is] a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver [any] by his great strength.
18Behold, the eye of the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate] [is] upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20Our soul waits for the Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate]: he [is] our help and our shield.
21For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
22Let youri mercy, O Lord-Yehōvah [Messiah Pre-Incarnate], be upon us, according as we hope in youi.
