1 Samuel 3:18
18So Samuel told him everything and hid nothing from him. And he said, a“It is the Lord. Let him do what seems good to him.”Job 23:13
13But he is unchangeable, ▼▼Or one
and cwho can turn him back?What he ddesires, that he does.
Psalms 33:9-11
9For ehe spoke, and it came to be;he commanded, and it stood firm.
10 The Lord fbrings the counsel of the nations to nothing;
he frustrates the plans of the peoples.
11 gThe counsel of the Lord stands forever,
the plans of his heart to all generations.
Psalms 115:3
3 hOur God is in the heavens;ihe does all that he pleases.
Psalms 135:6
6 jWhatever the Lord pleases, he does,in heaven and on earth,
in the seas and all deeps.
Isaiah 14:24-27
An Oracle Concerning Assyria
24 The Lord of hosts has sworn:k“As I have planned,
so shall it be,
and as I have purposed,
so shall it stand,
25that lI will break the Assyrian in my land,
and on my mountains trample him underfoot;
and mhis yoke shall depart from them,
and nhis burden from their shoulder.”
26 This is the purpose that is purposed
concerning the whole earth,
and this is othe hand that is stretched out
over all the nations.
27 pFor the Lord of hosts has purposed,
and who will annul it?
qHis hand is stretched out,
and who will turn it back?
