Psalm 33:17-22

Listen to Psalm 33:17-22
17 Le cheval manque à sauver, et il ne délivre point par la grandeur de sa force.
18 Voici, l'œil de l'Éternel est sur ceux qui le craignent, sur ceux qui s'attendent à sa bonté,
19 Pour délivrer leur âme de la mort, et pour les faire vivre durant la famine.
20 Notre âme s'attend à l'Éternel; il est notre aide et notre bouclier.
21 Car notre cœur se réjouit en lui; car nous nous confions en son saint nom.
22 Que ta bonté soit sur nous, ô Éternel! comme nous nous attendons à toi.

Psalm 33:17-22 Meaning and Commentary

INTRODUCTION TO PSALM 33

Though this psalm has no title to it, it seems to be a psalm of David, from the style and matter of it; and indeed begins with the same words with which the preceding psalm is ended. Theodoret is of opinion it was written by David as a prophecy concerning Hezekiah, as a song to be sung by the people after the destruction of the Assyrian army.
