SEV Biblia, Chapter 15:22
¶ Los pensamientos son frustrados donde no hay consejo; mas en la multitud de consejeros se afirman.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 15:22
Verse 22. But in the multitude of counsellors ] See note on chap. xi. 14. But µyx[wy br rob yoatsim might be translated, chief or master of the council, the prime minister.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 22. Without counsel purposes are disappointed , etc.] If a man determines and resolves upon a matter, and at once hastily and precipitately goes about it, without mature deliberation, without consulting with himself, and taking the advice of others in forming a scheme to bring about his designs, it generally comes to nothing; see ( Luke 14:28-32); or “without a secret” without keeping one; if a man divulges his intentions, it is much if they are not frustrated; so the Targum, “vain are the thoughts (or designs) where there is no secret;” if a man makes no secret of what he designs to do, he is easily counterworked, and his purposes disappointed; but in the multitude of counsellors they are established ; his purposes are, as in ( Proverbs 20:18); having the advice of others, and these many, he is confirmed that he is right in what he has thought of and purposed to do; and therefore goes about it with the greater spirit and cheerfulness, and is most likely to succeed, and generally does; see ( Proverbs 11:14).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 22 - If men will not take time and pains to deliberate, they are not likel to bring any thing to pass.
