- "And [one] toldª° David,ª saying,ª° Ahithophelª [is] among the conspiratorsª° with¹ Absalom.ª And Davidª said,ª° O LORD,ª I pray thee,¹ turn¹ the counselª of Ahithophelª into foolishness.ª°" {2Sm 15:31} + "And Absalomª and all¹ the menª of Israelª said,ª° The counselª of Hushaiª the Architeª [is] betterª than the counselª¹ of Ahithophel.ª For the LORDª had appointedª° to defeatª°¹ the goodª counselª of Ahithophel,ª to the intentª that the LORDª might bringª° evilª upon¹ Absalom.ª" {2Sm 17:14} + "He disappointethª° the devicesª of the crafty,ª so that their handsª cannot¹ performª° [their] enterprise.ª ... He takethª° the wiseª in their own craftiness:ª and the counselª of the frowardª° is carried headlong.ª°" {Job 5:12-13} + "The LORDª bringeth²° the counselª of the heathenª to nought:ª° he maketh²° the devicesª of the peopleª of none effect.ª° ... The counselª of the LORDª standethª° for ever,ª the thoughtsª of his heartª to allª generations.ª" {Psa 33:10-11} + "[There is] no¹ wisdomª nor¹ understandingª nor¹ counselª against¹ the LORD.ª" {Prv 21:30} + "Take²° counsel² together,ª°¹ and it shall come to nought;ª° speakª° the word,ª and it shall not¹ stand:ª° for¹ Godª [is] with us.¹" {Isa 8:10} + "That frustratethª° the tokensª of the liars,ª and maketh diviners²° mad;ª°¹ that turnethª° wiseª [men] backward,ª and maketh their knowledge² foolish;ª°¹" {Isa 44:25} + "Who¹ [is] he¹ [that] saith,ª° and it cometh to pass,¹ [when] the Lordª commandethª° [it] not?¹ ... Out of the mouthª¹ of the most Highª proceedethª° not¹ evilª and good?ª" {Lam 3:37-38} + "Forª the¹ wisdomª of thisª worldª isª° foolishnessª withª God.ª Forª it is written,ª° He takethª° the¹ wiseª inª their own²¹ craftiness.ª ... Andª again,ª The Lordª knowethª° the¹ thoughtsª of the¹ wise,ª thatª they areª° vain.ª" {1Co 3:19-20}
