Bible Verse Review
  from Treasury of Scripure Knowledge

know: Isaiah 16:6, Isaiah 37:28, Isaiah 37:29

his lies shall not so effect it: or, those on whom he stayeth (Heb. his bars) do not right, Baddim as Lowth observes, sometimes means those who pretend to the art of divination. Though the soothsayers of Moab, upon whose skill she relies, promise him success, yet in the event it will appear there was no truth in what they said. Jeremiah 50:36, Job 9:12, Job 9:13, Psalms 33:10, Proverbs 21:30

Reciprocal: Isaiah 2:17 - the loftiness Obadiah 1:3 - pride Luke 1:51 - he hath scattered

Gill's Notes on the Bible

I know his wrath, saith the Lord,.... Against the Jews, and other nations; what he has threatened to do unto them, and would do if not restrained:

but [it shall] not [be] so; as he has devised in his mind, and threatened in his wrath; all his swelling thoughts and big words shall come to nothing:

his lies shall not so effect [it]; it shall not be according to his words; they will prove lies, and of no effect. Kimchi interprets it of the sons of Moab, who shall not be able to do what they thought to do; and Jarchi of his mighty ones; and the Targum of his nobles, paraphrasing it,

"and their nobles are not right, they do not as is becoming;''

perhaps it may be better understood of his diviners and soothsayers, as the word is used in Isaiah 44:25; and be rendered, "his diviners have not done right" f; they have deceived him with their lying oracles; swelled him with pride; and brought him to ruin, he trusting to them.

f בדיו לא כן עשו "vaniloqui ejus non rectum fecerunt", Cocceius. So R. Sol. Urbin. Ohel Moed, fol. 38. 1.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

But it shall not be so - Most commentators translate, “I know, saith Jehovah, his arrogancy, and the emptiness of his boastings; they have worked emptiness.”
