Verse 3

When we cast (lit. roll) our cares on God (1 Peter 5:7), He will arrange our plans. The AV and RV have "thoughts" for "plans," but the idea is the same. This proverb stresses the importance of depending on the Lord.

"The admonition commit to (gol ’el, lit. ’roll to/upon’; cf. Genesis 29:3; Genesis 29:8; Genesis 29:10; Psalms 22:8[9], Psalms 37:5) connotes a sense of finality; roll it unto the LORD and leave it there." [Note: Waltke, The Book of Proverbs: Chapters 15-31, p. 11.]
