16There is no king saued by the multitude of an hoste: a mightie man is not deliuered by much strength. 17An horse is a vaine thing for safetie: neither shall he deliuer any by his great strength. 18Behold, the eye of the Lord is vpon them that feare him: vpon them that hope in his mercy: 19To deliuer their soule from death, and to keepe them aliue in famine. 20Our soule waiteth for the Lord: he is our helpe, and our shield.

Wesley's Notes for Psalms 33:18
33:18 The eye - Whosoever therefore would have safety, must expect it only from the watchful eye, and almighty hand of God. That fear - These are the chief objects of his care and favour. Hope - That place their hope and trust, and happiness, not in any creature, but only in God, and in his mercy and blessings.
