Psalm 33
NIV Parallel ESV [BSB CSB ESV HCS KJV ISV NAS NET NIV NLT HEB]
New International VersionEnglish Standard Version
1Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him.1Shout for joy in the LORD, O you righteous! Praise befits the upright.
2Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre.2Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre; make melody to him with the harp of ten strings!
3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts.
4For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.4For the word of the LORD is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness.
5The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.5He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the LORD.
6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.6By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host.
7He gathers the waters of the sea into jars; he puts the deep into storehouses.7He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; he puts the deeps in storehouses.
8Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere him.8Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him!
9For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.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.10The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples.
11But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.11The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance.12Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!
13From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;13The LORD looks down from heaven; he sees all the children of man;
14from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth--14from where he sits enthroned he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth,
15he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.15he who fashions the hearts of them all and observes all their deeds.
16No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength.16The king is not saved by his great army; a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.
17A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.17The war horse is a false hope for salvation, and by its great might it cannot rescue.
18But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,18Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love,
19to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.19that he may deliver their soul from death and keep them alive in famine.
20We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.20Our soul waits for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.
21In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.21For our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name.
22May your unfailing love be with us, LORD, even as we put our hope in you.22Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you.
