Exegesis
The construct chain chets-teshuah la-YHWH {חֵץ־תְּשׁוּעָה לַיהוָה | ḥēṣ·tə·šū·ʿāh la·YHWH} ties divine ownership to the instrument of salvation, paralleled by ve-chets-teshuah ba-aram {וְחֵץ תְּשׁוּעָה בַאֲרָם | wə·ḥēṣ tə·šū·ʿāh ba·ʾā·rām} “and arrow of deliverance against Aram,” which shifts focus to the enemy.
Root and etymology
