5 Then the Lord came down to see the city and the tower which they had built, 6 and he said, “Now then, these are all one people and they speak one language; this is just the beginning of what they are going to do. Soon they will be able to do anything they want! 7 Let us go down and mix up their language so that they will not understand each other.” 8 So the Lord scattered them all over the earth, and they stopped building the city. 9 The city was called Babylon, because there the Lord mixed up the language of all the people, and from there he scattered them all over the earth.

5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. 6 Remember the Lord in everything you do, and he will show you the right way.

3 Ask the Lord to bless your plans, and you will be successful in carrying them out.

24 The Lord has determined our path; how then can anyone understand the direction his own life is taking?

2 You may think that everything you do is right, but remember that the Lord judges your motives.

27 Don't build your house and establish a home until your fields are ready, and you are sure that you can earn a living.

12 Sensible people will see trouble coming and avoid it, but an unthinking person will walk right into it and regret it later.
