10 The Lord foils the plans of the
nations;
he thwarts the purposes of the
peoples.
11 But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever,
the purposes of his heart through all
generations.
12 Blessed is the
nation whose God is the Lord,
the people he chose for his
inheritance.
13 From heaven the Lord looks down
and sees all mankind;
14 from his dwelling place he
watches
all who live on earth—
15 he who forms the hearts of
all,
who considers everything they do.
16 No king is
saved by the size of his army;
no warrior escapes by his great
strength.
17 A horse is a vain hope for
deliverance;
despite all its great strength it cannot
save.
18 But the eyes of the Lord are on those who fear him,
on those whose hope is in his unfailing
love,
19 to deliver them from death
and keep them alive in famine.
20 We wait in
hope for the Lord;
he is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts rejoice,
for we trust in his holy name.
22 May your unfailing love be with
us, Lord,
even as we put our hope in you.
