Exegesis
The verse employs an emphatic contrast through the repeated demonstratives elleh {אֵלֶּה | ʾêl-leh} ‘these’ and the parallel prepositional phrases barekhev {בָרֶכֶב | bā-re-khev} ‘in chariot’ and basûsîm {בַסּוּסִים | bas-sû-sîm} ‘in horses’, highlighting divergent objects of trust.
In context — Psalm 20:7
Some rely on chariots, and others on horses, but we will keep in mind the name of the LORD our God .
