- Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, The people whom He has chosen for His own inheritance.
- The LORD looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men;
- From His dwelling place He looks out On all the inhabitants of the earth,
- He who fashions the hearts of them all, He who understands all their works.
- The king is not saved by a mighty army; A warrior is not delivered by great strength.

- Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD, the people he chose for his inheritance.
- From heaven the LORD looks down and sees all mankind;
- from his dwelling place he watches all who live on earth-
- he who forms the hearts of all, who considers everything they do.
- No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength.
|
- A horse is a false hope for victory; Nor does it deliver anyone by its great strength.
- Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope for His lovingkindness,
- To deliver their soul from death And to keep them alive in famine.
- Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
- For our heart rejoices in Him, Because we trust in His holy name.
|
- A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.
- But the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear him, on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,
- to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.
- We wait in hope for the LORD; he is our help and our shield.
- In him our hearts rejoice, for we trust in his holy name.
|
- Let Your lovingkindness, O LORD, be upon us, According as we have hoped in You.
|
- May your unfailing love rest upon us, O LORD, even as we put our hope in you.
