The Book of Psalms
Psalm 32
Exultate, justi.
An exhortation to praise God, and to trust in him.
 1 |
A psalm for David. Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright. |
2 |
Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings. |
3 |
Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise. |
4 |
For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness. |
5 |
He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord. |
6 |
By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth: |
7 |
Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses. |
8 |
Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him. |
9 |
For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created. |
10 |
The Lord bringeth to nought the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes. |
11 |
But 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: the people whom he hath chosen for his inheritance. |
13 |
The Lord hath looked from heaven: he hath beheld all the sons of men. |
14 |
From his habitation which he hath prepared, he hath looked upon all that dwell on the earth. |
15 |
He who hath made the hearts of every one of them: who understandeth all their works. |
16 |
The king is not saved by a great army: nor shall the giant be saved by his own great strength. |
17 |
Vain is the horse for safety: neither shall he be saved by the abundance of his strength. |
18 |
Behold the eyes of the Lord are on them that fear him: and on them that hope in his mercy. |
19 |
To deliver their souls from death; and feed them in famine. |
20 |
Our soul waiteth for the Lord: for he is our helper and protector. |
21 |
For in him our heart shall rejoice: and in his holy name we have trusted. |
22 |
Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, as we have hooped in thee. |
