16A king is not saved by the number of his forces, Nor a hero by the greatness of his strength.
17The horse is a vain thing for safety, Nor can he deliver his master by his great strength.
18Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him,—Upon them that trust in his goodness;
19To save them from the power of death, And keep them alive in famine.
20The hope of our souls is in the LORD; He is our help and our shield.
