1 God is to be praised for his goodness, 6 for his power, 12 and for his providence. 20 Confidence is to be placed in God.

33:1 ¶ A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.

33:2 Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.

33:3 Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise.

33:4 For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.

33:5 He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.

33:6 By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:

33:7 Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.

33:8 Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.

33:9 For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.

33:10 The Lord bringeth to nought the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.

33:11 But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

33:12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord: the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance.

33:13 The Lord hath looked from heaven: he hath beheld all the sons of men.

33:14 From his habitation which he hath prepared, he hath looked upon all that dwell on the earth.

33:15 He who hath made the hearts of every one of them: who understandeth all their works.

33:16 The king is not saved by a great army: nor shall the giant be saved by his own great strength.

33:17 Vain is the horse for safety: neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength.

33:18 Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy.

33:19 To deliver their souls from death; and feed them in famine.

33:20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helper and protector.

33:21 For in him our heart shall rejoice: and in his holy name we have trusted.

33:22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hoped in thee.
