NETBible

Whatever has happened was foreordained, 1  and what happens to a person 2  was also foreknown. It is useless for him to argue with God about his fate because God is more powerful than he is. 3 

NET Notes

tn Heb “already its name was called.”

tn Or “and what a person (Heb “man”) is was foreknown.”

tn Heb “he cannot contend with the one who is more powerful than him.” The referent of the “the one who is more powerful than he is” (God) has been specified in the translation for clarity. The words “with God about his fate” have been added for clarity as well.
