Psalms 33
God is to be praised for his goodness,
Psalms 33:1 Reioyse in þe Lord, O ye ryghteous, for it becommeth well the iust to be thankfull. Psalms 33:2 Prayse the Lord with harpe: synge psalmes vnto hym with the lute and instrument of ten strynges. Psalms 33:3 Synge vnto the Lorde a newe songe, synge prayses lustely with a good corage. Psalms 33:4 For the worde of the Lorde is true, and all hys worckes are faythfull. Psalms 33:5 He loueth ryghteousnes and iugement: the earth is full of the goodnesse of the Lorde.
for his power,
Psalms 33:6 By the worde of the Lorde were the heauens made, and all the Hoostes of them by the breth of his mouth. Psalms 33:7 He gathereth the waters of the see together as it were vpon a heape, & layeth vp the depe as in a tresure house. Psalms 33:8 Let all the earth feare the Lorde: stande in awe of hym, all ye that dwell in the worlde. Psalms 33:9 For he spake, and it was done: he commaunded, and it stode fast. Psalms 33:10 The Lorde bryngeth the councell of the Heithen to naught, and maketh the deuyces of the people, to be of none effecte. Psalms 33:11 The councell of the Lorde shall endure for euer, and the thoughtes of hys herte from generacyon to generacyon.
and for his providence.
Psalms 33:12 Blessed are the people whose God is the Lorde Iehouah, & blessed are the folcke that haue chosen hym to be theyr inheritaunce. Psalms 33:13 The Lorde loked downe from heauen, and behelde all the chyldren of men: Psalms 33:14 from the habitacyon of his dwellynge, he consydreth all them that dwell in the erth. Psalms 33:15 He fashyoneth all the hertes of them, and vnderstandeth all theyr worckes. Psalms 33:16 There is no kynge that can be saued by the multytude of an hoost, nether is any myghtie man delyuered by moche strength. Psalms 33:17 A horse is counted but a vayne thynge to saue a man, neyther shall he delyuer any man by hys greate strength. Psalms 33:18 Behold the eye of the Lorde is vpon them that feare hym, and vpon them that put theyr trust in his mercy. Psalms 33:19 To delyuer theyr soules from death, and to fede them in the tyme of dearth.
Confidence is to be placed in God.
Psalms 33:20 Oure soule hath paciently taryed for the Lorde for he is oure helpe and oure shylde. Psalms 33:21 For oure herte shall reioyse in hym, because we haue hoped in hys holy name. Psalms 33:22 Let thy mercyfull kyndnesse, O Lorde be vpon vs, lyke as we haue put oure trust in the.
