⁷ Some ·trust in [boast in; rely on] chariots, others in horses,
    but we ·trust [boast in; rely on] the name of the Lord our God [Is. 2:7].

¹⁷ Horses ·can’t bring [are a vain hope for] victory;
    they can’t save by their strength.

³ Assyria cannot save us,
    nor will we ·trust in our [mount and ride] horses.
We will not say again, ‘Our gods,’
    to the things our hands have made.
You show ·mercy [compassion] to ·orphans [the fatherless].”
