Thou sayest, (but [they are but] vain words,) [I have] counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
Thou sayest {H559},(but they are but vain {H8193} words {H1697},) I have counsel {H6098} and strength {H1369} for the war {H4421}. Now on whom dost thou trust {H982}, that thou rebellest {H4775} against me?
Do you think that mere spoken words constitute strategy and strength for battle? In whom, then, are you trusting when you rebel against me like this?
You claim to have a strategy and strength for war, but these are empty words. In whom are you now trusting, that you have rebelled against me?
Thou sayest (but they are but vain words), There is counsel and strength for the war. Now on whom dost thou trust, that thou hast rebelled against me?
