Proverbs 21:31 - The horse is made ready for the day of battle

NIV The horse is made ready for the day of battle,
but victory rests with the LORD.
KJV The horse is prepared against the day of battle: but safety is of the LORD.
NASBThe 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).
