Bible Comments

O LORD, I know that (p) the way of man [is] not in himself: [it is] not in man that walketh to direct his steps.

(p) He speaks this because Nebuchadnezzar purposed to have made war against the Moabites and Ammonites, but hearing of Zedekiah's rebellion he turned his power to go against Jerusalem, (Ezekiel 21:21) therefore the prophet says that this was the Lord's direction.
