Psalms 33:13

God's presence

11 The counsel of the LORD stands forever, the purposes of His heart to all generations.

12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people He has chosen as His inheritance!

The LORD looks down from heaven; He sees all the sons of men.

14 From His dwelling place He gazes on all who inhabit the earth.

15 He shapes the hearts of each; He considers all their works.
