Psalms 33:13-22 MWT
  יהוה   looks down from his throne in heaven. He sees all of Adam's descendants. (14) From the place where he sits enthroned, he looks down upon all who live on earth. (15) The one who formed their hearts and minds understands everything they do. (16) No king achieves victory by a large army. No warrior rescues himself by his own great strength. (17) Horses are not a guarantee for victory. Their great strength cannot help someone escape. (18)   יהוה 'S  eyes are on those who fear him, on those who wait with hope for his mercy (19) to rescue their souls from death (Job 33:16-30) and keep them alive during a famine. (20) We wait for   יהוה  . He is our help and our shield. (21) In him our hearts find joy. In his holy name we trust. (22) Let your mercy and loving-kindness rest on us, O   יהוה  , even as we wait with hope and faith in you.

Psalms 33:13-22 CEV
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 do can be hidden from him. (16) Mighty armies alone cannot win wars for a king; great strength by itself cannot keep a soldier safe. (17) In war the strength of a horse cannot be trusted to take you to safety. (18) But the LORD watches over all who honor him and trust his kindness. (19) He protects them from death and starvation. (Job 33:16-30) (20) We depend on you, LORD, to help and protect us. (21) You make our hearts glad because we trust you, the only God. (22) Be kind and bless us! We depend on you.

Psalms 33:13-22 GW
The LORD looks down from heaven. He sees all of Adam's descendants. (14) From the place where he sits enthroned, he looks down upon all who live on earth. (15) The one who formed their hearts understands everything they do. (16) No king achieves a victory with a large army. No warrior rescues himself by his own great strength. (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 death (Job 33:16-30) and 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 and loving kindness rest on us, O LORD, since we wait with hope for you.

Psalms 33:13-22 LITV
(13) Jehovah looks down from Heaven; He sees all the sons of mankind. (14) From His dwellingplace He looks on all the ones living in the earth. (15) He forms the heart; He understands all their works. (16) The king is not saved by great force; a mighty man is not saved by great strength. (17) A horse is a vain thing for safety; nor does he save by his great strength. (18) Behold the eye of Jehovah is to those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy; (19) to deliver their soul from death, (Job 33:16-30) and to keep them alive in famine. (20) Our soul waits for Jehovah; He is our help and shield. (21) For our heart rejoices in Him because we trust in His holy name. (22) Let Your mercy be upon us, O Jehovah, even as we trust in You.

Psalm 33:13-22 NWT
13 From the heavens Jehovah has looked, He has seen all the sons of men. 14 From the established place where he dwells He has gazed at all those dwelling on the earth. 15 He is forming their hearts all together; He is considering all their works. 16 There is no king saved by the abundance of military forces; A mighty man himself is not delivered by the abundance of power. 17 The horse is a deception for salvation, And by the abundance of its vital energy it does not afford escape. 18 Look! The eye of Jehovah is toward those fearing him, To those waiting for his loving-kindness, 19 To deliver their soul from death itself, (Job 33:16-30) And to preserve them alive in famine. 20 Our very soul has been in expectation of Jehovah. Our helper and our shield he is. 21 For in him our heart rejoices; For in his holy name we have put our trust. 22 Let your loving-kindness, O Jehovah, prove to be upon us, Even as we have kept waiting for you.

Psalms 33:13-22 MKJV
(13) Jehovah looks down from Heaven; He beholds all the sons of mankind. (14) From His dwelling place He looks on all the people of the earth. (15) Together He forms their hearts; His understanding is to all their works. (16) The king is not saved by a great army; a mighty man is not delivered by much strength. (17) A horse is a vain thing for safety; neither shall he deliver by his great strength. (18) Behold, the eye of Jehovah is to those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy; (19) to deliver their soul from death, (Job 33:16-30) and to keep them alive in famine. (20) Our soul waits for Jehovah; He is our help and our shield. (21) For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we trust in His holy name. (22) Let Your mercy, O Jehovah, be on us, according as we hope in You.
