"To God belong wisdom and power;
counsel and understanding are His.
What He tears down cannot be rebuilt;
the man He imprisons cannot be released.
counsel and understanding are His.
What He tears down cannot be rebuilt;
the man He imprisons cannot be released.
If He holds back the waters, there is drought;
if he lets them loose, they devastate the land.
To Him belong strength and victory;
both deceived and deceiver are His.
He leads counselors away stripped
and makes fools of judges.
He takes off the shackles put on by kings
and ties a loincloth around their waist.
He leads priests away stripped
and overthrows men long established.
He silences the lips of trusted advisers
and takes away the discernment of elders.
He pours contempt on nobles
and disarms the mighty.
He reveals the deep things of darkness
and brings deep shadows into the light.
He makes nations great, and destroys them;
He enlarges nations, and disperses them.
He deprives the leaders of the earth of their reason;
He sends them wandering through a trackless waste.
They grope in darkness with no light;
He makes them stagger like drunkards."
Also read Jeremiah 18:7-10
