NET © Notes

tn Perhaps the verb is used metonymically here in the sense of “advises” (note the following line).

tn In this context רוּחַ (ruakh) likely refers to the Lord’s “mind,” or mental faculties, rather than his personal Spirit (see BDB 925 s.v.).

tn Heb “or [as] the man of his counsel causes him to know?”
