Psalm 33 :: New Living Translation (NLT)

			Let the godly sing for joy to you LORD; it is fitting for the pure to praise you God.
			Praise the LORD with melodies on the lyre; make music for him on the ten-stringed harp.
			Sing a new song of praise to him; play skillfully on the harp, and sing with joy.
			For the word of the LORD holds true, and we can trust everything he does.
			He loves whatever is just and good; the unfailing love of the LORD fills the earth.
			The LORD merely spoke, and the heavens were created. He breathed the word, and all the stars were born.
			He assigned the sea its boundaries and locked the oceans in vast reservoirs.
			Let the whole world fear the LORD, and let everyone stand in awe of him.
			For when you speak Lord, the world began! It appeared at your command.
			The LORD frustrates 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 as his inheritance.
			LORD you look down from heaven and see the whole human race.
			From your throne you God observe all who live on the earth.
			You made our hearts, so you God understand everything we 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 put our hope in you LORD. You are our help and our shield.
			In you our hearts rejoice, for we trust in your holy name.
			Let your unfailing love surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.
