Acts 5:34-39
But one stood up in the council, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law, honored by all the people, and commanded to put the apostles out for a little while.He said to them,“ You men of Israel, be careful concerning these men, what you are about to do.For before these days Theudas rose up, making himself out to be somebody; to whom a number of men, about four hundred, joined themselves. He was slain; and all, as many as obeyed him, were dispersed, and came to nothing.After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the enrollment, and drew away some people after him. He also perished, and all, as many as obeyed him, were scattered abroad.Now I tell you, withdraw from these men, and leave them alone. For if this counsel or this work is of men, it will be overthrown.But if it is of God, you will not be able to overthrow it, and you would be found even to be fighting against God!”

Jeremiah 13:15-17
Hear, and give ear. Don’t be proud, for Yahweh has spoken.Give glory to Yahweh your God, before he causes darkness, and before your feet stumble on the dark mountains, and, while you look for light, he turns it into the shadow of death, and makes it deep darkness.But if you will not hear it, my soul will weep in secret for your pride. My eye will weep bitterly, and run down with tears, because Yahweh’s flock has been taken captive.
