Hosea 14:4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)

4 [a]Assyria will not save us,
    nor will we mount horses;(A)
We will never again say, ‘Our god,’
    to the work of our hands;
    for in you the orphan finds compassion.”(B)

Footnotes

  1. 14:4 These good intentions promise a reversal of Israel’s sins: no more reliance on “Assyria,” i.e., on foreign alliances (see notes on 8:9 and 12:2), on “horses,” i.e., on human power (10:13), and on idolatry (8:4–6; 13:2). Israel will trust in the Lord alone.
