⁷ The steps of his strength shall be straitened, and his own counsel shall cast him down.

³⁰ There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the Lord.

⁶ In the transgression of an evil man there is a snare: but the righteous doth sing and rejoice.

⁹ The wise men are ashamed, they are dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected the word of the Lord; and what wisdom is in them?
