Psalm 33:1-11

Listen to Psalm 33:1-11
1 (32-1) <A psalm for David.> Rejoice in the Lord, O ye just: praise becometh the upright.
2 (32-2) Give praise to the Lord on the harp; sing to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings.
3 (32-3) Sing to him a new canticle, sing well unto him with a loud noise.
4 (32-4) For the word of the Lord is right, and all his works are done with faithfulness.
5 (32-5) He loveth mercy and judgment; the earth is full of the mercy of the Lord.
6 (32-6) By the word of the Lord the heavens were established; and all the power of them by the spirit of his mouth:
7 (32-7) Gathering together the waters of the sea, as in a vessel; laying up the depths in storehouses.
8 (32-8) Let all the earth fear the Lord, and let all the inhabitants of the world be in awe of him.
9 (32-9) For he spoke and they were made: he commanded and they were created.
10 (32-10) The Lord bringeth to nought the counsels of nations; and he rejecteth the devices of people, and casteth away the counsels of princes.
11 (32-11) But the counsel of the Lord standeth for ever: the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

Psalm 33:1-11 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 33

Though this psalm has no title to it, it seems to be a psalm of David, from the style and matter of it; and indeed begins with the same words with which the preceding psalm is ended. Theodoret is of opinion it was written by David as a prophecy concerning Hezekiah, as a song to be sung by the people after the destruction of the Assyrian army.
