“Being away or alone for a moment of time to ponder something is one thing,

but being isolated is something else and the two shouldn’t get confused.” - G.S.MinistrDef -

The kings of the earth form a united front; the rulers collaborate against the LORD and his anointed king. They say, "Let's tear off the shackles they've put on us! Let's free ourselves from their ropes!" - (NET) Psalm 2:1-12 KJV:

[1] Why do the heathen rage, and the people imagine a vain thing? [2] The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord, and against his anointed, saying, [3] Let us break their bands asunder, and cast away their cords from us. [4] He that sitteth in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision. [5] Then shall he speak unto them in his wrath, and vex them in his sore displeasure. [6] Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion. [7] I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. [8] Ask of me, and I shall give thee the heathen for thine inheritance, and the uttermost parts of the earth for thy possession. [9] Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron; thou shalt dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. [10] Be wise now therefore, O ye kings: be instructed, ye judges of the earth. [11] Serve the Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. [12] Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him.

Proverbs 18:1-2 (NET)

1 One who has isolated himself seeks his own desires;

he rejects all sound judgment.

2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding

but only in disclosing what is on his mind.

Proverbs 18:1-2 KJV

[1] Through desire a man, having separated himself, seeketh and intermeddleth with all wisdom. [2] A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
