Acts 4:28

Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:

Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

But as for you, ye thought evil against me; but God meant it unto good, to bring to pass, as it is this day, to save much people alive.

The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.

But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.

Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counsellor hath taught him?

That say, Let him make speed, and hasten his work, that we may see it: and let the counsel of the Holy One of Israel draw nigh and come, that we may know it!

Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:

And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

With him is wisdom and strength, he hath counsel and understanding.

But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.

Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of promise the immutability of his counsel, confirmed it by an oath:

This also cometh forth from the LORD of hosts, which is wonderful in counsel, and excellent in working.
