Psalm 33

Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous  *

for it becometh well the just to be thankful.

Praise the Lord with harp *

sing praises unto him with the lute, and instrument of ten strings.

Sing unto the Lord a new song *

sing praises lustily unto him with a good courage.

For the word of the Lord is true *

and all his works are faithful.

He loveth righteousness and judgement *

the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

By the word of the Lord were the heavens made *

and all the hosts of them by the breath of his mouth.

He gathereth the waters of the sea together, as it were upon an heap *

and layeth up the deep, as in a treasure-house.

Let all the earth fear the Lord *

stand in awe of him, all ye that dwell in the world.

To deliver their soul from death *

and to feed them in the time of dearth.

Our soul hath patiently tarried for the Lord *

for he is our help and our shield.

For our heart shall rejoice in him *

because we have hoped in his holy Name.

Let thy merciful kindness, O Lord, be upon us *

like as we do put our trust in thee.
