Psalms 118:8 Cross References - Brenton

^{8 (117:8)} It is better to trust in the Lord than to trust in man.

^{4 (39:4)} Blessed is the man whose hope is in the name of the Lord, and who has not regarded vanities and false frenzies.

^{8 (61:8)} Hope in him, all ye congregation of the people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our helper. Pause. ^{9 (61:9)} But the sons of men are vain; the sons of men are false, so as to be deceitful in the balances; they are all alike formed out of vanity.

⁵ Cursed is the man who trusts in man, and will lean his arm of flesh upon him, while his heart departs from the Lord. ⁶ And he shall be as the wild tamarisk in the desert: he shall not see when good comes; but he shall dwell in barren places, and in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited. ⁷ But blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, and whose hope the Lord shall be.

⁵ Trust not in friends, and confide not in guides: beware of thy wife, so as not to commit anything to her. ⁶ For the son dishonours his father, the daughter will rise up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law: those in his house shall be all a man's enemies. ⁷ But I will look to the Lord; I will wait upon God my Saviour: my God will hearken to me.
