 | The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but victory rests with the LORD. |
 | The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD. |
 | The horse is prepared for the day of battle, But victory belongs to the LORD. |
| Proverbs 21:31 |
Commentary
This is not a condemnation of adequate preparation but rather of reliance on it for victory, instead of on the Lord (cf. Ezra 8:22; Ps. 20:7; Is. 31:1-3; Hos. 1:7).
