The Lord Almighty has sworn,“ Surely, as I have planned, so it will be, and as I have purposed, so it will happen.

The Lord who rules over all has made a promise. He has said,“ You can be sure that what I have planned will happen. What I have decided will take place.

The Lord of hosts has sworn:“ As I have planned, so shall it be, and as I have purposed, so shall it stand,

The LORD of Armies has sworn: As I have purposed, so it will be; as I have planned it, so it will happen.

The Lord of armies has sworn, saying,“ Certainly, just as I have intended, so it has happened, and just as I have planned, so it will stand,

The Lord of hosts has sworn, saying,“ Surely, as I have thought, so it shall come to pass, And as I have purposed, so it shall stand:

Jehovah of hosts hath sworn, saying, Surely, as I have thought, so shall it come to pass; and as I have purposed, so shall it stand:

The Lord of Hosts has sworn: As I have purposed, so it will be; as I have planned it, so it will happen.

The LORD who commands armies makes this solemn vow:“ Be sure of this: Just as I have intended, so it will be; just as I have planned, it will happen.

You can make many plans, but the Lord’s purpose will prevail.

But everything they did was determined beforehand according to your will.

But once he has made his decision, who can change his mind? Whatever he wants to do, he does.

For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord.“ They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.

Only I can tell you the future before it even happens. Everything I plan will come to pass, for I do whatever I wish.I will call a swift bird of prey from the east— a leader from a distant land to come and do my bidding. I have said what I would do, and I will do it.

The Lord has taken an oath and will not break his vow:“ You are a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek.”

The anger of the Lord will not diminish until it has finished all he has planned. In the days to come you will understand all this very clearly.

Who can command things to happen without the Lord’s permission?

“ But listen to this message from the Lord, all you Judeans now living in Egypt:‘ I have sworn by my great name,’ says the Lord,‘ that my name will no longer be spoken by any of the Judeans in the land of Egypt. None of you may invoke my name or use this oath:“ As surely as the Sovereign Lord lives.”

At that time Jesus prayed this prayer:“ O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, thank you for hiding these things from those who think themselves wise and clever, and for revealing them to the childlike.

Now the Lord has sworn this oath by his own name, the Pride of Israel:“ I will never forget the wicked things you have done!

The Lord frustrates the plans of the nations and thwarts all their schemes.

For only we who believe can enter his rest. As for the others, God said,“ In my anger I took an oath:‘ They will never enter my place of rest,’” even though this rest has been ready since he made the world.

God has now revealed to us his mysterious will regarding Christ— which is to fulfill his own good plan.

No human wisdom or understanding or plan can stand against the Lord.

He said,“ They have raised their fist against the Lord’s throne, so now the Lord will be at war with Amalek generation after generation.”

O Lord, what great works you do! And how deep are your thoughts.

Now when people take an oath, they call on someone greater than themselves to hold them to it. And without any question that oath is binding.God also bound himself with an oath, so that those who received the promise could be perfectly sure that he would never change his mind.So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us.
