33 Rejoice in the Lord , O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

² Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.

³ Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.

⁴ For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.

⁵ He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord .

⁶ By the word of the Lord 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 an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.

⁸ Let all the earth fear the Lord : let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

⁹ For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

¹⁰ The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

¹¹ The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

¹² Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord ; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

¹³ The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

¹⁴ From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

¹⁵ He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

¹⁶ There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

¹⁷ An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

¹⁸ Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

¹⁹ To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

²⁰ Our soul waiteth for the Lord : he is our help and our shield.

⁸ Everyone on earth should fear and respect the Lord .
All the people in the world should fear him,
⁹ because when he speaks, things happen.
And if he says, “Stop!”—then it stops. ^{[ b ]}
¹⁰ The Lord can ruin every decision the nations make.
He can spoil all their plans.
¹¹ But the Lord ’s decisions are good forever.
His plans are good for generation after generation.
¹² Great blessings belong to those who have the Lord as their God!
He chose them to be his own special people.
¹³ The Lord looked down from heaven
and saw all the people.
¹⁴ From his high throne he looked down
at all the people living on earth.
¹⁵ He created every person’s mind,
and he knows what each one is doing.
¹⁶ A king is not saved by the power of his army.
A soldier does not survive by his own great strength.
¹⁷ Horses don’t really bring victory in war.
Their strength cannot help you escape.
¹⁸ The Lord watches over his followers,
those who wait for him to show his faithful love.
¹⁹ He saves them from death.
He gives them strength when they are hungry.
²⁰ So we will wait for the Lord .
He helps us and protects us.

We trust his holy name.

so show your great love for us.
