Psalms 40:4
Blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, who does not look to the proud, to those who turn aside to false gods.
-
Jeremiah 17:5-7
This is what the Lord says:“ Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the Lord.That person will be like a bush in the wastelands; they will not see prosperity when it comes. They will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives.“ But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him.

Micah 7:5-7
Do not trust a neighbor; put no confidence in a friend. Even with the woman who lies in your embrace guard the words of your lips.For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law— a man’s enemies are the members of his own household.But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.

Psalms 62:8-9
Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie. If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.
