14  And the men took of their victuals, and asked not ^acounsel at the mouth of the Lord.

  22  Without ^acounsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.

  9  Woe unto him that ^astriveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

  28  O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the ^gcounsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not. And they shall perish.

  29  But to be learned is good if they hearken unto the ^ccounsels of God.

  12  And it may suffice if I only say they are preserved for a wise purpose, which purpose is known unto God; for he doth ^bcounsel in wisdom over all his works, and his paths are straight, and his course is one eternal round.

  37  ^aCounsel with the Lord in all thy doings, and he will direct thee for good; yea, when thou liest down at night lie down unto the Lord, that he may watch over you in your sleep; and when thou risest in the morning let thy heart be full of thanks unto God; and if ye do these things, ye shall be lifted up at the last day.

  4  For although a man may have many revelations, and have power to do many mighty works, yet if he boasts in his own strength, and sets at naught the ^ecounsels of God, and follows after the dictates of his own will and carnal desires, he must fall and incur the vengeance of a just God upon him.

  13  Who has set at naught the counsels of God, and has broken the most sacred promises which were made before God, and has depended upon his own judgment and ^aboasted in his own wisdom.

  4  Wherefore, enter ye in at the gate, as I have commanded, and ^bseek not to counsel your God. Amen.
