13 The Lord looks at the world
14 from his throne in heaven,and he watches us all.
15 The Lord gave us each a mind,and nothing we docan be hidden from him.
16 Mighty armies alonecannot win wars for a king;great strength by itselfcannot keep a soldier safe.
17 In war the strength of a horsecannot be trustedto take you to safety.
18 But the Lord watches overall who honour himand trust his kindness.
19 He protects them from deathand starvation.
