Isaiah 36:5

Do you think that mere words are strategy and power for war ? In whom do you now trust , that you have rebelled against me?

You say you have counsel and might for war—but you speak only empty words. On whom are you depending, that you rebel against me?

I say, sayest thou , (but they are but vain words ) I have counsel and strength for war : now on whom dost thou trust, that thou rebellest against me?
