21 There are many devices in a man's heart; nevertheless the counsel of the Lord, that shall stand.
21 Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails.
21 Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the Lord that will stand.
21 We humans keep brainstorming options and plans, but God's purpose prevails.
21 There are many plans in a man's heart, Nevertheless the Lord's counsel--that will stand.
21 You can make many plans, but the Lord 's purpose will prevail.
