¹³ The Lord ^(C)looks down from heaven;
    he sees all the children of man;
¹⁴ from ^(D)where he sits enthroned he ^(E)looks out
    on all the inhabitants of the earth,
¹⁵ he who fashions the hearts of them all
    and observes all their deeds.

¹⁸ Behold, ^(A)the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
    ^(B)on those who hope in his steadfast love,
¹⁹ that he may ^(C)deliver their soul from death
    and keep them alive in ^(D)famine.

²⁰ Our soul ^(E)waits for the Lord;
    he is our ^(F)help and ^(G)our shield.
²¹ For our heart is ^(H)glad in him,
    because we ^(I)trust in his holy name.
²² Let your steadfast love, O Lord, be upon us,
    even as we hope in you.
