Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help.

Study Note
'Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help' — the Hallelujah psalm's antimonarchical warning immediately follows the call to praise God, establishing the contrast between the mortal prince (verse 4: 'his breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth') and the eternal God who executes justice for the oppressed. The verse belongs to the Psalter's consistent critique of political idolatry — the tendency to look to earthly power for the deliverances that only divine sovereignty can provide. Psalm 118:8–9 reinforces the same theme, and Jesus's temptation narrative (Matthew 4:8–10) represents the definitive rejection of political-kingdom shortcuts in favor of exclusive divine loyalty.
