17 Horses are not a guarantee for victory.Their great strength cannot help someone escape.
18 The Lord’s eyes are on those who fear him,on those who wait with hope for his mercy
19 to rescue their souls from deathand keep them alive during a famine.
20 We wait for the Lord.He is our help and our shield.
21 In him our hearts find joy.In his holy name we trust.
22 Let your mercy rest on us, O Lord,since we wait with hope for you.
