Book - Psalms - Chapter = 33 --> NLT
-
Let the godly sing with joy to the LORD, for it is fitting to praise him.
-
Praise the LORD with melodies on the lyre; make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.
-
Sing new songs of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp and sing with joy.
-
For the word of the LORD holds true, and everything he does is worthy of our trust.
-
He loves whatever is just and good, and his unfailing love fills the earth.
-
The LORD merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.
-
He gave the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
-
Let everyone in the world fear the LORD, and let everyone stand in awe of him.
-
For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.
-
The LORD shatters the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes.
-
But the LORD's plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.
-
What joy for the nation whose God is the LORD, whose people he has chosen for his own.
-
The LORD looks down from heaven and sees the whole human race.
-
From his throne he observes all who live on the earth.
-
He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do.
-
The best-equipped army cannot save a king, nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.
-
Don't count on your warhorse to give you victory--for all its strength, it cannot save you.
-
But the LORD watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his unfailing love.
-
He rescues them from death and keeps them alive in times of famine.
-
We depend on the LORD alone to save us. Only he can help us, protecting us like a shield.
-
In him our hearts rejoice, for we are trusting in his holy name.
-
Let your unfailing love surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.
