Psalm 33:1-15

Psalm 33 1Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him.

2Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.

3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.

4For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.

5The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.

6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.

7He gathers the waters of the sea into jars Or sea as into a heap ; he puts the deep into storehouses.

8Let all the earth fear the LORD ; let all the people of the world revere him.

9For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.

10The LORD foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.

11But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.

12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance.

13From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;

14from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth—

15he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.
