| 1 | Reioyce in God O ye righteous: for prayse becommeth well the iust. | Shout for joy in the LORD, O you righteous! Praise befits the upright. | Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. | |
| 2 | Confesse it to god with the harpe: sing psalmes vnto hym with the viall, and with the instrument of ten stringes. | Give thanks to the LORD with the lyre; make melody to him with the harp of ten strings! | Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. | |
| 3 | Sing vnto him a new song: do it cunningly, make a sweete noyse with your musicall instrumentes alowde. | Sing to him a new song; play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts. | Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy. | |
| 4 | For the word of God is right: and euery worke of his done in fayth. | For the word of the LORD is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. | For the word of the LORD is right and true; he is faithful in all he does. | |
| 5 | He loueth righteousnes & iudgement: the earth is ful of the goodnes of God. | He loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of the steadfast love of the LORD. | The LORD loves righteousness and justice; the earth is full of his unfailing love. | |
| 6 | By the worde of God are the heauens made: and all the hoastes of them by the breath of his mouth. | By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, and by the breath of his mouth all their host. | By the word of the LORD the heavens were made, their starry host by the breath of his mouth. | |
| 7 | He gathereth the waters of the sea together as it were vpon an heape: and layeth vp the deepe as treasures. | He gathers the waters of the sea as a heap; he puts the deeps in storehouses. | He gathers the waters of the sea into jars; he puts the deep into storehouses. | |
| 8 | Let all the earth feare God: let all they that dwell in the worlde stande in awe of him. | Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the inhabitants of the world stand in awe of him! | Let all the earth fear the LORD; let all the people of the world revere him. | |
| 9 | For he spake and it was: he commauded, and it was brought to passe. | For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm. | For he spoke, and it came to be; he commanded, and it stood firm. | |
| 10 | God bringeth the counsell of the Heathen to naught: and maketh the deuises of the people to be of none effect. | The LORD brings the counsel of the nations to nothing; he frustrates the plans of the peoples. | The LORD foils the plans of the nations; he thwarts the purposes of the peoples. | |
| 11 | The counsayle of God shall endure for euer: and the thoughtes of his heart from generation to generation. | The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the plans of his heart to all generations. | But the plans of the LORD stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations. | |
| 12 | Blessed is the nation that hath God to be their Lorde: that people hath he chosen to be an inheritaunce for him. | Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage! | Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance. | |
| 13 | God looketh downe from heauen, and beholdeth all the chyldren of men | The LORD looks down from heaven; he sees all the children of man; | From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind; | |
| 14 | (33:13) from the place where he resteth: he eyeth diligently euery dweller on the earth. | from where he sits enthroned he looks out on all the inhabitants of the earth, | from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth— | |
| 15 | (33:14) He fashioneth their heartes together: he vnderstandeth al their workes. | he who fashions the hearts of them all and observes all their deeds. | he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do. | |
| 16 | (33:15) A king is not saued by the multitude of an hoast: a man of great myght escapeth not by much strength. | The king is not saved by his great army; a warrior is not delivered by his great strength. | No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. | |
| 17 | (33:16) A horse for to saue is vanitie: and he can deliuer none by his great strength. | The war horse is a false hope for salvation, and by its great might it cannot rescue. | A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save. | |
| 18 | (33:17) Beholde, the eye of God is vpon them that feare hym: and vpon them that wayteth after his mercy. | Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his steadfast love, | But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love, | |
| 19 | (33:18) To deliuer their soules from death: and to preserue their liues in dearth. | that he may deliver their soul from death and keep them alive in famine. | to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine. | |
| 20 | (33:19) Our soule wayteth after God: he is our ayde and shielde. | Our soul waits for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. | We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield. | |
| 21 | (33:20) For our heart shall reioyce in him: because we haue put our trust in his holy name. | For our heart is glad in him, because we trust in his holy name. | In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name. | |
| 22 | (33:21) Let thy louing kindnes O God be vppon vs: like as we haue put our trust in thee. | Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you. | May your unfailing love be with us, LORD, even as we put our hope in you. | |
