Planning

3Commit your deeds to Yahweh, and your plans shall succeed.

11For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future.

28For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn’t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it?

4May He grant you your heart’s desire, and fulfill all your counsel.

9A man’s heart plans his course, but Yahweh directs his steps.

8Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

22Where there is no counsel, plans fail; but in a multitude of counselors they are established.

21There are many plans in a man’s heart, but Yahweh’s counsel will prevail.

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

4Don’t weary yourself to be rich. In your wisdom, show restraint.

8“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways,” says Yahweh.

29This also comes out from Yahweh of Armies, who is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in wisdom.

12So teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

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

7Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.

31Don’t envy the man of violence. Choose none of his ways.

32For the perverse is an abomination to Yahweh, but his friendship is with the upright.

10But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God.
