“There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: a mighty man is not delivered by much strength.”
The psalmist continues the contrast, affirming that a horse is a vain hope for victory and cannot save despite its great strength. The comparison suggests that even the most valued military asset cannot be relied upon for security. The verb "save" emphasizes that the horse cannot deliver what it promises. The phrase "will not deliver any of them" emphasizes the failure of human strategy and power. The verse invites the assembly to recognize that reliance on military power is fundamentally futile.
