Psalm 33:12–22

12  rBlessed is the nation whose God is the Lord;

And the people whom he hath schosen for his own inheritance.

13  tThe Lord looketh from heaven;

He beholdeth all the sons of men.

14  From uthe place of his habitation he wlooketh

Upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

15  He fashioneth their hearts alike;

xHe wconsidereth all their works.

16  yThere is no king saved by the multitude of an host:

A mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

17  zAn horse is a vain thing for safety:

Neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

18  Behold, athe eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him,

bUpon them that hope in his mercy;

19  cTo deliver their soul from death,

And to keep them alive din famine.

20  eOur soul fwaiteth for the Lord:

He is gour help and our shield.

21  For our hheart shall rejoice in him,

Because we have itrusted in his holy name.

22  Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us,

According as we bhope in thee.
