Psalms 40:4
How blessed is the man who has made the Lord his trust, And has not turned to the proud, nor to those who become involved in falsehood.

Jeremiah 17:5-7
This is what the Lord says:“ Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the Lord.For he will be like a bush in the desert, And will not see when prosperity comes, But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness, A land of salt that is not inhabited.Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose trust is the Lord.

Micah 7:5-7
Do not trust in a neighbor; Do not have confidence in a close friend. Guard your lips From her who lies in your arms.For son disavows father, Daughter rises up against her mother, Daughter in law against her mother in law; A person’s enemies are the people of his own household.But as for me, I will be on the watch for the Lord; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.

Psalms 62:8-9
Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your hearts before Him; God is a refuge for us. SelahPeople of low standing are only breath, and people of rank are a lie; In the balances they go up. Together they are lighter than breath.
