Psalms 33:3-18
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 33
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 faithfulness. 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 by the breath of His mouth all their lights. 7He gathers the waters of the sea together as a heap; He puts the depths 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 firm. 10The Lord nullifies the plan of nations; He frustrates the plans of peoples. 11The plan of the Lord stands forever, The plans of His heart from generation to generation. 12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, The people He has chosen for His own inheritance. 13The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of mankind; 14From His dwelling place He looks out On all the inhabitants of the earth, 15He who fashions the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works. 16The king is not saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not rescued by great strength. 17A horse is a false hope for victory; Nor does it rescue anyone by its great strength. 18Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, On those who wait for His faithfulness,King James Version

Chapter 33
3Sing a new song to him; play skillfully on the strings, with a joyful shout. 4For the word of the Lord is right, and all his work is trustworthy.
5He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the Lord’s unfailing love.
6The heavens were made by the word of the Lord, and all the stars, by the breath of his mouth.
7He gathers the water of the sea into a heap; he puts the depths into storehouses.
8Let the whole earth fear the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him.
9For he spoke, and it came into being; he commanded, and it came into existence.
10The Lord frustrates the counsel of the nations; he thwarts the plans of the peoples.
11The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart from generation to generation.
12Happy is the nation whose God is the Lord — the people he has chosen to be his own possession!
13The Lord looks down from heaven; he observes everyone.
14He gazes on all the inhabitants of the earth from his dwelling place.
15He forms the hearts of them all; he considers all their works.
16A king is not saved by a large army; a warrior will not be rescued by great strength.
New Living Translation
Chapter 33
3Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy. 4For the word of the Lord holds true, and we can trust everything he does. 5He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the Lord fills the earth.
6The Lord merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.
7He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
8Let the whole world fear the Lord, and let everyone stand in awe of him.
9For when he spoke, the world began! It appeared at his command.
10The Lord frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes.
11But the Lord’s plans stand firm forever; his intentions can never be shaken.
13The Lord looks down from heaven and sees the whole human race.
14From his throne he observes all who live on the earth.
15He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do.
16The best-equipped army cannot save a king, nor is great strength enough to save a warrior.
17Don’t count on your warhorse to give you victory — for all its strength, it cannot save you.

Chapter 33
3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts. 4For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. 5He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord. 6By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host. 7He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; he puts the deeps 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 came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm. 10The Lord brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples. 11 The counsel of the Lord stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations. 12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage! 13The Lord looks down from heaven; he sees all the children of man; 14from where he sits enthroned he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth, 15he who fashions the hearts of them all and observes all their deeds. 16 The king is not saved by his great army; a warrior is not delivered by his great strength. 17 The war horse is a false hope for salvation, and by its great might it cannot rescue. 18Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love,New International Version
Chapter 33
3Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. 4For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does.
5The Lord loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love.
6By the word of the Lord the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth.
7He gathers the waters of the sea into jars ; he puts the deep into storehouses.
8Let all the earth fear the Lord; let all the people of the world revere him.
9For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm.
10The Lord foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples.
11But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations.
12Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people he chose for his inheritance.
13From heaven the Lord looks down and sees all mankind;
14from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth—
15he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.
16No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength.
17A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.
18But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
