12 So teach us to number our days,

That we may get us a heart of wisdom.

28 For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doth not first sit down and count the cost, whether he have wherewith to complete it?

22 Where there is no counsel, purposes are disappointed;

But in the multitude of counsellors they are established.

3 Commit thy works unto Jehovah,

And thy purposes shall be established.

4 Weary not thyself to be rich;

Cease from thine own wisdom.

9 A man’s heart deviseth his way;

But Jehovah directeth his steps.

21 There are many devices in a man’s heart;

But the counsel of Jehovah, that shall stand.

8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.

9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

29 This also cometh forth from Jehovah of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.

11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end.

7 Surely the Lord Jehovah will do nothing, except he reveal his secret unto his servants the prophets.

4 Grant thee thy heart’s desire,

And fulfil all thy counsel.

8 Cause me to hear thy lovingkindness in the morning;

For in thee do I trust:

Cause me to know the way wherein I should walk;

For I lift up my soul unto thee.

1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven:

10 But unto us God revealed them through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

31 Envy thou not the man of violence,

And choose none of his ways.

32 For the perverse is an abomination to Jehovah;

But his friendship is with the upright.
