'Devises' in the Bible
For we will certainly die and are like water that is spilled on the ground and cannot be gathered up again. Yet God does not [simply] take away life, but devises plans so that the one who is banished is not driven away from Him.
Your tongue devises destruction,Like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
Who perversely in his heart plots trouble and evil continually;Who spreads discord and strife.
A worthless man devises and digs up evil,And the words on his lips are like a scorching fire.
As for the rogue, his weapons are evil;He conceives wicked plansTo ruin the poor with lies,Even when the plea of the needy one is just and right.
But the noble man conceives noble and magnificent things;And he stands by what is noble and magnificent.
