¡Canten al Señor!

¡Que los justos alaben al SEÑOR!
    ¡Qué bueno cuando la gente honesta lo alaba!
Toquen la lira para alabar al SEÑOR;
    cántenle bellas canciones con el arpa.
Alábenlo con una nueva canción.[a]
    ¡Tóquenla bien y cántenla fuerte!

Porque la palabra del SEÑOR es verdadera
    y en su bondad pueden confiar.
Él ama que se haga justicia y se establezca el derecho.
    La tierra está llena del fiel amor del SEÑOR.

El SEÑOR creó los cielos con sus palabras.
    Todas las estrellas del firmamento fueron creadas con uno solo de sus suspiros.
Dios juntó las aguas en el cielo
    y las puso en grandes depósitos.
Habitantes de la tierra, respeten al SEÑOR.
    Todos los que habitan el mundo, tengan temor de él.
Si él ordena que todo se tiene que detener,
    entonces, todo dejará de existir.[b]
10 Con una sola orden, el SEÑOR arruina todos los planes de las naciones;
    él estropea todos los proyectos de los pueblos.
11 Pero el consejo del SEÑOR sigue en pie para siempre.
    Sus planes bondadosos continuarán realizándose
    de generación en generación.
12 Afortunada la nación que tiene al SEÑOR como su Dios;
    el pueblo que él eligió para ser de su exclusiva propiedad.
13 El SEÑOR mira la tierra desde el cielo
    y observa a todos.
14 Desde su trono en el cielo mira
    a todos los habitantes de la tierra.
15 Él formó la mente de todo ser humano
    y entiende todo lo que la gente hace.
16 Dios todo lo controla y si los reyes son victoriosos,
    no es gracias a sus soldados,
así como los guerreros no ganan
    simplemente gracias a su fuerza.
17 Las armas[c] no garantizan la victoria.
    La fuerza no ayuda a la gente a escapar de la muerte en las batallas.
18 El SEÑOR protege a quienes lo siguen.
    Él cuida de quienes ponen su confianza en su fiel amor.
19 Los salva de la muerte
    y los reanima cuando están hambrientos.
20 Nosotros esperamos que el SEÑOR nos ayude
    porque él es nuestro apoyo y nuestro protector.
21 Porque lo amamos
    y es el único en quien podemos confiar.
22 SEÑOR, danos la misericordia
    que esperamos.

Psalm 33

Rejoice in the Lord, O you [uncompromisingly] righteous [you upright in right standing with God]; for praise is becoming and appropriate for those who are upright [in heart].

Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre; sing praises to Him with the harp of ten strings.

Sing to Him a new song; play skillfully [on the strings] with a loud and joyful sound.

For the word of the Lord is right; and all His work is done in faithfulness.

He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the loving-kindness of the Lord.

By the word of the Lord were the heavens made, and all their host by the breath of His mouth.(A)

He gathers the waters of the sea as in a bottle; He puts the deeps in storage places.

Let all the earth fear the Lord [revere and worship Him]; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of Him.

For He spoke, and it was done; He commanded, and it stood fast.

10 The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nought; He makes the thoughts and plans of the peoples of no effect.

11 The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the thoughts of His heart through all generations.

12 Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His heritage.

13 The Lord looks from heaven, He beholds all the sons of men;

14 From His dwelling place He looks [intently] upon all the inhabitants of the earth—

15 He Who fashions the hearts of them all, Who considers all their doings.

16 No king is saved by the great size and power of his army; a mighty man is not delivered by [his] much strength.

17 A horse is devoid of value for victory; neither does he deliver any by his great power.

18 Behold, the Lord’s eye is upon those who fear Him [who revere and worship Him with awe], who wait for Him and hope in His mercy and loving-kindness,

19 To deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.

20 Our inner selves wait [earnestly] for the Lord; He is our Help and our Shield.

21 For in Him does our heart rejoice, because we have trusted (relied on and been confident) in His holy name.

22 Let Your mercy and loving-kindness, O Lord, be upon us, in proportion to our waiting and hoping for You.

33 Rejoice in the Lord, O ye righteous: for praise is comely for the upright.

Praise the Lord with harp: sing unto him with the psaltery and an instrument of ten strings.

Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a loud noise.

For the word of the Lord is right; and all his works are done in truth.

He loveth righteousness and judgment: the earth is full of the goodness of the Lord.

By the word of the Lord were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the breath of his mouth.

He gathereth the waters of the sea together as an heap: he layeth up the depth in storehouses.

Let all the earth fear the Lord: let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.

For he spake, and it was done; he commanded, and it stood fast.

10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.

11 The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.

13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

17 An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.

20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.

21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.

22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee.
