In the Hebrew text, "Cush" is "כּוּשׁ" (Kush), which is often associated with strength and military prowess. Historically, Cush was known for its powerful warriors and was considered a formidable ally. The phrase "made Cush their hope" suggests reliance on human strength and alliances rather than on God.
