Verse from Jeremiah

This is what the Lord says:
"Cursed is the one who trusts in man,
who draws strength from mere flesh
and whose heart turns away from the Lord. "
But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. (Jeremiah 17:5, 7)
耶和华这样说:
“倚靠世人,
恃凭肉体为自己的力量,
心里偏离耶和华的,
这人该受咒诅。 但倚靠耶和华,
以耶和华为他所信赖的,
这人是有福的。 (耶利米书 17:5, 7)
Those who put their trust in God will never be disappointed.

甚么事情都可以作,但不是都有益处。甚么事情都可以作,但不是都能造就人。 人不要求自己的好处,却要求别人的好处。 (哥林多前书 10:23, 24)

Verse from 1 Corinthians

But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, so that no one may boast before him. (1 Corinthians 1:27-29)
但是 神却拣选了世上愚笨的,使那些有智慧的羞愧。他也拣选了世上软弱的,使那些刚强的羞愧。 他也拣选了世上卑贱的和被人轻视的,以及算不得甚么的,为了要废弃那些自以为是的, 使所有的人在 神面前都不能自夸。 (哥林多前书 1:27-29)
