Psalm 33

NASB

Psalm 33

Praise to the Creator and Preserver.

^{Tools
1}

^(A)Sing for joy in the Lord, O you righteous ones;
Praise is ^(B)becoming to the upright.

^{Tools
2}

Give thanks to the Lord with the ^(C)lyre;
Sing praises to Him with a ^(D)harp of ten strings.

^{Tools
3}

Sing to Him a ^(E)new song;
Play skillfully with ^(F)a shout of joy.

^{Tools
4}

For the word of the Lord ^(G)is upright,
And all His work is done ^(H)in faithfulness.

^{Tools
5}

He ^(I)loves righteousness and justice;
The ^(J)earth is full of the lovingkindness of the Lord.

^{Tools
6}

By the ^(K)word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And ^(L)by the breath of His mouth ^(M)all their host.

^{Tools
7}

He gathers the ^(N)waters of the sea together ^(a)as a heap;
He lays up the deeps in storehouses.

^{Tools
8}

Let ^(O)all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world ^(P)stand in awe of Him.

^{Tools
9}

For ^(Q)He spoke, and it was done;
He commanded, and it ^(b)stood fast.

^{Tools
10}

The Lord ^(R)nullifies the counsel of the nations;
He frustrates the plans of the peoples.

^{Tools
11}

The ^(S)counsel of the Lord stands forever,
The ^(T)plans of His heart from generation to generation.

^{Tools
12}

Blessed is the ^(U)nation whose God is the Lord,
The people whom He has ^(V)chosen for His own inheritance.

^{Tools
13}

The Lord ^(W)looks from heaven;
He ^(X)sees all the sons of men;

^{Tools
14}

From ^(Y)His dwelling place He looks out
On all the inhabitants of the earth,

^{Tools
15}

He who ^(Z)fashions ^(c)the hearts of them all,
He who ^(AA)understands all their works.

^{Tools
16}

^(AB)The king is not saved by a mighty army;
A warrior is not delivered by great strength.

^{Tools
17}

A ^(AC)horse is a false hope for victory;
Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength.

^{Tools
18}

Behold, ^(AD)the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who ^(d)^(AE)hope for His lovingkindness,

^{Tools
19}

To ^(AF)deliver their soul from death
And to keep them alive ^(AG)in famine.

^{Tools
20}

Our soul ^(AH)waits for the Lord;
He is our ^(AI)help and our shield.

^{Tools
21}

For our ^(AJ)heart rejoices in Him,
Because we trust in His holy name.

^{Tools
22}

Let Your lovingkindness, O Lord, be upon us,
According as we have ^(e)hoped in You.
