The plain sense and meaning of this Proverb being thus laid open before us, we may very easily discern the scope and drift of it to be this, viz. To make us sensible of the folly and vanity of mens arrogance, in setting up for themselves in the world, without a due regard to the all-disposing providence of the Almighty God; in going about to make their own Fortunes by their own skill and industry, without a due respect to the Will and directions of the universal Governor of the World. |
