The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations (33:11) Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance (33:12) The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men (33:13) From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth (33:14) He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works (33:15) There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength (33:16) An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great strength (33:17) Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy (33:18) To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine (33:19) Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield (33:20) For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name (33:21) Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee
(33:22)
