- The LORD[YHWH]:
- "Why¹ do the heathenª rage,ª° and the peopleª imagineª° a vain thing?ª ... He that sittethª° in the heavensª shall laugh:ª° the Lordª shall have them in derision.ª°" {Psa 2:1-4} + "The heathenª are sunk downª° in the pitª [that] they made:ª° in the netª whichª they hidª° is their own footª taken.ª°" {Psa 9:15} + "Come¹ on,²° let us deal wiselyª° with them; lest¹ they multiply,ª° and it come to pass,¹ that, when¹ there falleth outª° any war,ª theyª joinª° also¹ unto¹ our enemies,ª° and fightª° against us, and [so] get them upª° out of¹ the land.ª ... But the more¹ they afflictedª° them, the moreª they multipliedª° and grew.ª°¹ And they were grievedª° becauseª¹ of the childrenª of Israel.ª" {Exd 1:10-12} + "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} + "But if¹ thou returnª° to the city,ª and sayª° unto Absalom,ª I¹ will be¹ thy servant,ª O king;ª [as] I¹ [have been] thy father'sª servantª hitherto,ª¹ so [will] I¹ now¹ also [be] thy servant:ª then mayest thou for me defeatª°¹ the counselª of Ahithophel.ª" {2Sm 15:34} + "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} + "And when Ahithophelª sawª° that¹ his counselª was not¹ followed,ª° he saddledª° [his]¹ ass,ª and arose,ª° and gat¹ him home²° to¹ his house,ª to¹ his city,ª and put¹¹ his householdª in order,²° and hanged²° himself,¹ and died,ª° and was buriedª° in the sepulchreª of his father.ª" {2Sm 17:23} + "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} + "[There is] no¹ wisdomª nor¹ understandingª nor¹ counselª against¹ the LORD.ª" {Prv 21:30} + "Because¹¹ Syria,ª Ephraim,ª and the sonª of Remaliah,ª have taken evilª counselª° against¹ thee, saying,ª° ... Thusª saithª° the Lordª GOD,ª It shall not¹ stand,ª° neither¹ shall it come to pass.¹" {Isa 7:5-7} + "Associateª° yourselves, O ye people,ª and ye shall be broken¹ in pieces;²° and give ear,ª° allª ye of farª countries:ª gird²° yourselves,¹ and ye shall be broken¹ in pieces;²° gird²° yourselves,¹ and ye shall be broken¹ in pieces.²° ... 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 8:9-10} + "And the spiritª of Egyptª shall failª° in the midstª thereof; and I will destroyª° the counselª thereof: and they shall seekª° to¹ the idols,ª and to¹ the charmers,ª and to¹ them that have familiar spirits,ª and to¹ the wizards.ª" {Isa 19:3} + "Surely¹ the princesª of Zoanª [are] fools,ª the counselª of the wiseª counsellorsª° of Pharaohª is become brutish:ª° how¹ sayª° ye unto¹ Pharaoh,ª I¹ [am] the sonª of the wise,ª the sonª of ancientª kings?ª ... The LORDª hath mingledª° a perverseª spiritª in the midstª thereof: and they have caused¹ Egyptª to errª° in every¹ workª thereof, as a drunkenª [man] staggerethª° in his vomit.ª" {Isa 19:11-14} + "Sing,ª° O ye heavens;ª for¹ the LORDª hath doneª° [it]: shout,ª° ye lower partsª of the earth:ª break forthª° into singing,ª ye mountains,ª O forest,ª and every¹ treeª therein: for¹ the LORDª hath redeemedª° Jacob,ª and glorified²° himself¹ in Israel.ª" {Isa 44:23}
