Psalm 33:11-13
New American Standard Bible
Psalm 33:11-15
The Message
10-12 God takes the wind out of Babel pretense,
he shoots down the world’s power-schemes.
God’s plan for the world stands up,
all his designs are made to last.
Blessed is the country with God for God;
blessed are the people he’s put in his will.
13-15 From high in the skies God looks around,
he sees all Adam’s brood.
From where he sits
he overlooks all us earth-dwellers.
He has shaped each person in turn;
now he watches everything we do.
Psalm 33:11-15
New American Standard Bible
11 The (A)plan of the Lord stands forever,
The (B)plans of His heart from generation to generation.
12 Blessed is the (C)nation whose God is the Lord,
The people He has (D)chosen for His own inheritance.
13 The Lord (E)looks from heaven;
He (F)sees all the sons of mankind;
14 From (G)His dwelling place He looks out
On all the inhabitants of the earth,
15 He who (H)fashions [a]the hearts of them all,
He who (I)understands all their works.
