Man's

The steps of a man are established by the Lord,
And He delights in his way.
I know, O Lord, that a man’s way is not in himself,
Nor is it in a man who walks to direct his steps.
but you have exalted yourself against the Lord of heaven; and they have brought the vessels of His house before you, and you and your nobles, your wives and your concubines have been drinking wine from them; and you have praised the gods of silver and gold, of bronze, iron, wood and stone, which do not see, hear or understand. But the God in whose hand are your life-breath and all your ways, you have not glorified.
for in Him we live and move and exist, as even some of your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’

How

The wisdom of the sensible is to understand his way,
But the foolishness of fools is deceit.
The mind of man plans his way,
But the Lord directs his steps.
Make me know Your ways, O Lord;
Teach me Your paths.
I send it against a godless nation
And commission it against the people of My fury
To capture booty and to seize plunder,
And to trample them down like mud in the streets.

General references

The mind of man plans his way,
But the Lord directs his steps.
I know, O Lord, that a man’s way is not in himself,
Nor is it in a man who walks to direct his steps.
