16 No king achieves a victory with a large army.
    No warrior rescues himself by his own great strength.
17 Horses are not a guarantee for victory.
    Their great strength cannot help someone escape.
18 Yahweh’s eyes are on those who fear him,
    on those who wait with hope for his mercy
19 to rescue their souls from death
    and keep them alive during a famine.

20 We wait for Yahweh.
    He is our help and our Magen.
21 In him our hearts find joy.
    In his holy name we trust.
22 Let your mercy rest on us, O Yahweh,
    since we wait with hope for you.
