Psalm 33
Exultate, justi
1
Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; *
it is good for the just to sing praises.
2
Praise the Lord with the harp; *
play to him upon the psaltery and lyre.
3
Sing for him a new song; *
sound a fanfare with all your skill upon the trumpet.
4
For the word of the Lord is right, *
and all his works are sure.
5
He loves righteousness and justice; *
the loving-kindness of the Lord fills the whole earth.
6
By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, *
by the breath of his mouth all the heavenly hosts.
7
He gathers up the waters of the ocean as in a water-skin *
and stores up the depths of the sea.
8
Let all the earth fear the Lord; *
let all who dwell in the world stand in awe of him.
18
Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those who fear him, *
on those who wait upon his love,
19
To pluck their lives from death, *
and to feed them in time of famine.
20
Our soul waits for the Lord; *
he is our help and our shield.
21
Indeed, our heart rejoices in him, *
for in his holy Name we put our trust.
22
Let your loving-kindness, O Lord, be upon us, *
as we have put our trust in you.
