Psalm 33

USCCB - NAB - Psalm 33

The LORD foils the plan of nations, frustrates the designs of peoples.
11
But the plan of the LORD stands forever, wise designs through all generations.
12
Happy the nation whose God is the LORD, the people chosen as his very own.
13
From heaven the LORD looks down and observes the whole human race,
14
Surveying from the royal throne all who dwell on earth.
15
The one who fashioned the hearts of them all knows all their works.
16
A king is not saved by a mighty army, nor a warrior delivered by great strength.
17
Useless is the horse for safety; its great strength, no sure escape.
18
But the LORD'S eyes are upon the reverent, upon those who hope for his gracious help,
19
Delivering them from death, keeping them alive in times of famine.
20
Our soul waits for the LORD, who is our help and shield.
21
For in God our hearts rejoice; in your holy name we trust.
22
May your kindness, LORD, be upon us; we have put our hope in you.


Fear not! No matter who is elected President and what their own plan for this great country is...God is still the One in charge. His "eyes are upon the reverent, upon those who hope for his gracious help".
