רַבּוֹת מַחֲשָׁבוֹת בְּלֶב-אִישׁ וַעֲצַת יְהוָה הִיא תָקֽוּם׃
There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the LORD, that shall stand.
מִי זֶה אָמַר וַתֶּהִי אֲדֹנָי לֹא צִוָּֽה׃
Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?
ἀλλ' ἀπετάξατο αὐτοῖς εἰπών Δεῖ με πάντως τὴν ἑορτὴν τὴν ἐρχομενην ποιῆσαι εἰς Ἰεροσόλυμα Πάλιν δὲ ἀνακάμψω πρὸς ὑμᾶς τοῦ θεοῦ θέλοντος καὶ ἀνήχθη ἀπὸ τῆς Ἐφέσου
But bade them farewell, saying, I must by all means keep this feast that cometh in Jerusalem: but I will return again unto you, if God will. And he sailed from Ephesus.
δεόμενος εἴπως ἤδη ποτὲ εὐοδωθήσομαι ἐν τῷ θελήματι τοῦ θεοῦ ἐλθεῖν πρὸς ὑμᾶς
Making request, if by any means now at length I might have a prosperous journey by the will of God to come unto you.
οὐ θέλω γὰρ ὑμᾶς ἄρτι ἐν παρόδῳ ἰδεῖν ἐλπίζω δὲ χρόνον τινὰ ἐπιμεῖναι πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐὰν ὁ κύριος ἐπιτρέπῃ
For I will not see you now by the way; but I trust to tarry a while with you, if the Lord permit.
ἵνα ἐν χαρᾷ ἔλθω πρὸς ὑμᾶς διὰ θελήματος θεοῦ καὶ συναναπαύσωμαι ὑμῖν
That I may come unto you with joy by the will of God, and may with you be refreshed.
ἐλεύσομαι δὲ ταχέως πρὸς ὑμᾶς ἐὰν ὁ κύριος θελήσῃ καὶ γνώσομαι οὐ τὸν λόγον τῶν πεφυσιωμένων ἀλλὰ τὴν δύναμιν·
But I will come to you shortly, if the Lord will, and will know, not the speech of them which are puffed up, but the power.
וַיֹּאמֶר הַמֶּלֶךְ לְצָדוֹק הָשֵׁב אֶת-אֲרוֹן הָֽאֱלֹהִים הָעִיר אִם-אֶמְצָא חֵן בְּעֵינֵי יְהוָה וֶֽהֱשִׁבַנִי וְהִרְאַנִי אֹתוֹ וְאֶת-נָוֵֽהוּ׃
And the king said unto Zadok, Carry back the ark of God into the city: if I shall find favour in the eyes of the LORD, he will bring me again, and shew me both it, and his habitation:
