'Devising' in the Bible
Why are the nations in an uproarAnd the peoples devising a vain thing?
The devising of folly is sin,And the scoffer is an abomination to men.
So now then, speak to the men of Judah and against the inhabitants of Jerusalem saying, ‘Thus says the Lord, “Behold, I am fashioning calamity against you and devising a plan against you. Oh turn back, each of you from his evil way, and reform your ways and your deeds.”’
