engLXXup: Psalms 32

=> Chapters

 [1] A Psalm of David.

Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous;

Praise becomes the upright.

[2] Praise the Lord on the harp;

Play to him on a psaltery of ten strings.

[3] Sing to him a new song;

Play skillfully with a loud noise.

[4] For the word of the Lord is right;

And all his works are faithful.

[5] He loves mercy and judgment;

The earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.

[6] By the word of the Lord the heavens were established;

And all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

[7] Who gathers the waters of the sea as in a bottle;

Who lays up the deeps in treasuries.

[8] Let all the earth fear the Lord;

And let all that dwell in the world be moved because of him.

[9] For he spoke, and they were made;

He commanded, and they were created.

[10] The Lord frustrates the counsels of the nations;

He brings to nought also the reasonings of the peoples,

And brings to nought the counsels of princes.

[11] But the counsel of the Lord endures forever,

The thoughts of his heart from generation to generation.

[12] Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord;

The people whom he has chosen for his own inheritance.

[13] The Lord looks out of heaven;

He beholds all the sons of men.

[14] He looks from his prepared habitation

On all the dwellers on the earth;

[15] Who fashioned their hearts alone;

Who understands all their works.

[16] A king is not saved by reason of a great host;

And a giant shall not be delivered by the greatness of his strength.

[17] A horse is vain for safety;

Neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.

[18] Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him,

Those that hope in his mercy;

[19] To deliver their souls from death,

And to keep them alive in famine.

[20] Our soul waits on the Lord;

For he is our helper and defender.

[21] For our heart shall rejoice in him,

And we have hoped in his holy name.

[22] Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us,

According as we have hoped in thee.
