Psalms 33:11 - Psalms 33:21

11 The counsel of the Lord standeth forever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.

12 Blessed are the nations and the people whom the Lord God hath chosen for his own inheritance.

13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.

14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.

15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.

16 There is no king saved by the multitude of host; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.

17 A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.

18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;

19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in a time of famine.

20 Our soul waiteth 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.
