I say, sayest thou, (but they are but vain words)] Or, I say, it is onely a vain word, or, speech. Heb. a word of lips. Proverbs 14:23. I have counsell and strength for warre] Or, but counsell and strength are for the warre. He chargeth Hezekiah, that he trusted to his own wisdom and strength; when as his trust was in God alone. 2 Chronicles 32:8. Or, he would bear him in hand, that he relied onely on vain words; having neither good advise, nor strength; which are requisite for warre. Proverbs 20:18. and Proverbs 24:6. Luke 14:31.
