Psalm 33:13-21
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 The Lord looks down from heaven;
he sees all humankind.(A)
14 From where he sits enthroned he watches
all the inhabitants of the earth—
15 he who fashions the hearts of them all
and observes all their deeds.(B)
16 A king is not saved by his great army;
a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.(C)
17 The war horse is a vain hope for victory,
and by its great might it cannot save.(D)
18 Truly the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
on those who hope in his steadfast love,(E)
19 to deliver their soul from death
and to keep them alive in famine.(F)
20 Our soul waits for the Lord;
he is our help and shield.
21 Our heart is glad in him
because we trust in his holy name.(G)
