Psalms 33:15-18 in English

¹⁵ He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, That considereth all their works.

¹⁶ There is no king saved by the multitude of a host: A mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

¹⁷ A horse is a vain thing for safety; Neither doth he deliver any by his great power.

¹⁸ Behold, the eye of Jehovah is upon them that fear him, Upon them that hope in his lovingkindness;

¹⁵ Turn away from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

¹⁶ The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer:

¹⁷ but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil, to destroy their memorial from the earth. The righteous cried, and the Lord hearkened to them,

¹⁸ and delivered them out of all their afflictions.

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

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

¹⁷ and delivered them out of all their afflictions.

¹⁸ The Lord is near to them that are of a contrite heart; and will save the lowly in spirit.

¹⁵ He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their works.

¹⁶ There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by great strength.

¹⁷ An horse is a vain thing for safety: neither shall he deliver any by his great power.

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

¹⁵ He formed our inner beings, and he sees everything that we do.

¹⁶ It is not because a king has a great army that he is able to win battles, and it is not because a soldier is very strong that he is able to defeat his enemy.

¹⁷ It is foolish to trust that because horses are very strong that they will able to win a battle and save their riders.

¹⁸ Do not forget that Yahweh watches over those who revere him, those who confidently expect him to faithfully love them.

¹⁵ The eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open to their prayer:

¹⁶ A king's salvation is not in the power of his army; a strong man does not get free by his great strength.

¹⁷ A horse is a false hope; his great power will not make any man free from danger.

¹⁵ He created their minds, so he knows everything they do.

¹⁶ Even the greatest army cannot save a king; the greatest strength cannot save a warrior.

¹⁷ Don't deceive yourself: a warhorse can't give you victory—even its incredible strength won't save you.

¹⁸ The Lord watches over those who reverently follow him, those who place their hope in his trustworthy love

¹⁵ He facioneth their hearts euery one, and vnderstandeth all their workes.

¹⁶ The King is not saued by the multitude of an hoste, neither is the mightie man deliuered by great strength.

¹⁷ A horse is a vaine helpe, and shall not deliuer any by his great strength.

¹⁵ He that fashioneth the hearts of them all, that considereth all their doings.

¹⁶ A king is not saved by the number of his forces, Nor a hero by the greatness of his strength.

¹⁷ The horse is a vain thing for safety, Nor can he deliver his master by his great strength.

¹⁸ Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him,—Upon them that trust in his goodness;

¹⁵ He fashions the hearts of them all, and gives heed to all that they do.

¹⁶ It is not by great armies that kings are victorious, it is not by great strength that a warrior saves himself;

¹⁷ false hope is the war-horse to usher in victory, for all its great might it can provide no escape.

¹⁸ See! The eye of the Lord is on those who fear him, on those who hope in his kindness;

¹⁵ He fashions the hearts of them all, and gives heed to all that they do.

¹⁶ A king is not saved by much virtue, that is, strength; and a giant shall not be saved in the muchliness of his virtue.

¹⁷ An horse is false to health; for-sooth he shall not be saved in the abundance, either plenty, of his virtue.

¹⁸ Lo! the eyes of the Lord be on men dreading him; and in them that hope in his mercy.

¹⁵ Which made singularly, either each by himself, the souls of them; which understandeth all the works of them. (Who made each one of them individually; and who understandeth all their works, or their deeds.)

¹⁸ Lo, the eye of Jehovah is to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,
