Proverbs3:5

5. Trust in the LORD with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding .

Wholly and securely rely upon God's Promises and Providence for help and relief in all thine affairs and dangers.

Think not to accomplish thy designs by the strength of thine own Wit without God's Blessing. Under this one kind of camal confidence, which is most frequent and most plausible, he understands, and forbids all other considences in bodily strength, wealth, friends, &c.
