Psalm 33:16-19
English Standard Version
16 (A)The king is not saved by his great army;
a warrior is not delivered by his great strength.
17 (B)The war horse is a false hope for salvation,
and by its great might it cannot rescue.
18 Behold, (C)the eye of the Lord is on those who fear him,
(D)on those who hope in his steadfast love,
19 that he may (E)deliver their soul from death
and keep them alive in (F)famine.

16 No king is saved by the size of his army;(A)
no warrior escapes by his great strength.
17 A horse(B) is a vain hope for deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot save.
18 But the eyes(C) of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing love,(D)
19 to deliver them from death(E)
and keep them alive in famine.(F)

Psalm 33:16-19
King James Version
16 There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.
17 An 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 famine.
