Psalm 33:1-11

Psalm 32 Psalm 34

Psalm 33:1-11 New King James Version (NKJV)

The Sovereignty of the Lord in Creation and History

33 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous!
For praise from the upright is beautiful.
²Praise the Lord with the harp;
^[a]Make melody to Him with an instrument of ten strings.
³Sing to Him a new song;
Play skillfully with a shout of joy.

⁴For the word of the Lord is right,
And all His work is done in truth.
⁵He loves righteousness and justice;
The earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

⁶By the word of the Lord the heavens were made,
And all the host of them by the breath of His mouth.
⁷He gathers the waters of the sea together ^[b]as a heap;
He lays up the deep in storehouses.

⁸Let all the earth fear the Lord;
Let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.
⁹For He spoke, and it was done;
He commanded, and it stood fast.

¹⁰The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
He makes the plans of the peoples of no effect.
¹¹The counsel of the Lord stands forever,
The plans of His heart to all generations.
