Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah, and all his might, and how he made the pool, and the conduit, and brought water into the city, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

For the king had taken counsel, and his princes, and all the assembly in Jerusalem, to keep the passover in the second month.

Every purpose is established by counsel; And by wise guidance make thou war.

For by wise guidance thou shalt make thy war; And in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.

For who hath known the mind of the Lord? or who hath been his counsellor?
