6That clinches it—help’s coming,

an answer’s on the way,

everything’s going to work out.

7–8See those people polishing their chariots,

and those others grooming their horses?

But we’re making garlands for God our God.

The chariots will rust,

those horses pull up lame—

and we’ll be on our feet, standing tall.

Read in Logos
Psalm 20:7: Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
