Psalms 33:18

¹⁶ No king is saved by his vast army; no warrior is delivered by his great strength.

¹⁷ A horse is a vain hope for salvation; even its great strength cannot save.

Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion

¹⁹ to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.

²⁰ Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
