Psalms 33:14

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

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

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

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

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

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
