Because you have trusted in your own way and in the multitude of your mighty men,
Amos
- Amos 6:1Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, which are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!Woe to those at ease in Zion and those secure on Mount Samaria, the distinguished ones of the foremost nation, to whom the house of Israel comes.
Micah
- Micah 7:5Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.Do not rely on a friend; do not trust in a companion. Seal the doors of your mouth from her who lies in your arms.
Habakkuk
- Habakkuk 2:18What profiteth the graven image that the maker thereof hath graven it; the molten image, and a teacher of lies, that the maker of his work trusteth therein, to make dumb idols?What use is an idol, that a craftsman should carve it— or an image, a teacher of lies? For its maker trusts in his own creation; he makes idols that cannot speak.
Zephaniah
- Zephaniah 3:2She obeyed not the voice; she received not correction; she trusted not in the Lord; she drew not near to her God.She heeded no voice; she accepted no correction. She does not trust in the LORD; she has not drawn near to her God.
