Gill's Notes on the Bible
[There is] no wisdom nor understanding, nor counsel against the Lord. No human schemes whatever, formed with the greatest wisdom and prudence, can ever prevail against God, or set aside or hinder the execution of any design of his; nothing that is pointed against his church, his cause, and interest, his truths and ordinances, in the issue shall succeed; all that are found fighters against him shall not prosper, let them be men of ever so much sagacity and wisdom; though there may be ever so many devices in a man's heart, and these ever so well planned, they shall never defeat the counsel of the Lord; see
Proverbs 19:21. The Targum is,
"there is no wisdom, c. as God's''
and so the Syriac version, "as the Lord's"; there is none like his, there is none to be compared with his; there is none of any value and worth but his; all is folly in comparison of that: or there is none "before the Lord" n; no wisdom of the creature can stand before him, it presently vanishes and disappears.
n לנגד יהוה "in conspectu Jehovae", Gejerus; "coram Domino", Gussetius, p. 495.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Two companion proverbs. Nothing avails against, nothing without, God. The horse is the type of warlike strength, used chiefly or exclusively in battle. 1Ki 4:26; 1 Kings 10:26-28, may be thought of as having given occasion to the latter of the two proverbs.
