| 1 | <V 32:1>A Psalm of David. Exult in the Lord, you just ones; together praise the upright. | 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 | <V 32:2>Confess to the Lord with stringed instruments; sing psalms to him with the psaltery, the instrument of ten strings. | 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 | <V 32:3>Sing to him a new song. Sing psalms to him skillfully, with loud exclamation. | 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 | <V 32:4>For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his works are in faith. | 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 | <V 32:5>He loves mercy and judgment. The earth is full of the mercy of the Lord. | 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 | <V 32:6>By the word of the Lord, the heavens were established, and all their power, by the Spirit 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 | <V 32:7>gathering together the waters of the sea, as if in a container, placing the depths in storage. | 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 | <V 32:8>Let all the earth fear the Lord, and may all the inhabitants of the world quake before 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 | <V 32:9>For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created. | 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 | <V 32:10>The Lord scatters the counsels of the nations. Moreover, he reproves the thoughts of the people, and he rejects the counsels of the leaders. | 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 | <V 32:11>But the counsel of the Lord remains for eternity, the thoughts 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 | <V 32:12>Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his inheritance. | 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 | <V 32:13>The Lord has looked down from heaven. He has seen all the sons 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 | <V 32:14>From his well-prepared dwelling place, he has gazed upon all who dwell 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 | <V 32:15>He has formed the hearts of each one of them; he understands all their works. | 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 | <V 32:16>The king is not saved by great power, nor will the giant be saved by his many powers. | 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 | <V 32:17>The horse is false safety; for he will not be saved by the abundance of his powers. | 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 | <V 32:18>Behold, the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him and on those who hope in 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 | <V 32:19>so as to rescue their souls from death and to feed them during famine. | 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 | <V 32:20>Our soul remains with the Lord. For he is our helper and protector. | 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 | <V 32:21>For in him, our heart will rejoice, and in his holy name, we have hoped. | 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 | <V 32:22>Let your mercy be upon us, O Lord, just as we have hoped in you. | 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. | |
