Psalms 33:18

Compare all

16 ^aNo king is saved by the multitude of an army;
A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

17 ^aA horse is a¹ vain hope for safety;
Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.

18 ^aBehold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him,
On those who hope in His mercy,

19 To deliver their soul from death,
And ^ato keep them alive in famine.

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

21 For our heart shall rejoice in Him,
Because we have trusted in His holy name.

22 Let Your mercy, O Lord, be upon us,
Just as we hope in You.

Psalms 33:18

Behold, the eye of the Lord - Though all the above are unavailing, yet here is one thing that can never fail; "the eye of the Lord" - the watchful providence of the Most High, "is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy."
