Some trust in chariots 
2 Kings 19:22-24  " 'Who is it you (Sennacherib king of Assyria) have ridiculed and blasphemed? Against whom have you raised your voice and lifted your eyes in pride? Against the Holy One of Israel! By your messengers you have ridiculed the Lord. And you have said, "With my many chariots I have ascended the heights of the mountains, the utmost heights of Lebanon. I have cut down the tallest cedars, the choicest of its junipers. I have reached its remotest parts, the finest of its forests. I have dug wells in foreign lands and have drunk the water there. With the soles of my feet I have dried up all the streams of Egypt." ' "

and some in horses 
Deuteronomy 17:16  The king, moreover, must not acquire great numbers of horses for himself or make the people return to Egypt to get more of them, for the LORD has told you, "You are not to go back that way again."
Psalm 33:17  A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save.

but we trust in the name of the LORD our God 
2 Chronicles 32:7-8  "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria and the vast army with him, for there is a greater power with us than with him.
