Salmos 33

¹ Exult, ye righteous, in Jehovah: praise is comely for the upright. ² Give thanks unto Jehovah with the harp; sing psalms unto him with the ten-stringed lute. ³ Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud sound. ⁴ For the word of Jehovah is right, and all his work is in faithfulness. ⁵ He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the loving-kindness of Jehovah. ⁶ By the word of Jehovah were the heavens made, and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth. ⁷ He gathereth the waters of the sea together as a heap; he layeth up the deeps in storehouses. ⁸ Let all the earth fear Jehovah; 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 fast. ¹⁰ Jehovah frustrateth the counsel of the nations; he maketh the thoughts of the peoples of none effect. ¹¹ The counsel of Jehovah standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart from generation to generation. ¹² Blessed is the nation whose God is Jehovah, the people that he hath chosen for his inheritance! ¹³ Jehovah looketh from the heavens; he beholdeth all the sons of men: ¹⁴ From the place of his habitation he looketh forth upon all the inhabitants of the earth; ¹⁵ He who fashioneth the hearts of them all, who considereth all their works. ¹⁶ The king is not saved by the multitude of [his] forces; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. ¹⁷ The horse is a vain thing for safety; neither doth he deliver by his great power. ¹⁸ Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his loving-kindness, ¹⁹ To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. ²⁰ Our soul waiteth for Jehovah: he is our help and our shield. ²¹ For in him shall our heart rejoice, because we have confided in his holy name. ²² Let thy loving-kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, according as we have hoped in thee.
