13The Lord looks from heaven; He sees all the sons of men. 14From the place of His dwelling He looks On all the inhabitants of the earth; He fashions their hearts individually; He considers all their works. 16No king is saved by the multitude of an army; A mighty man is not delivered by great strength. 17A horse is a vain hope for safety; Neither shall it deliver any by its great strength.

Commentaries on Psalms 33:15
