Hey there! Great posting of the “but the Lord” in Scripture! I found two errors you might want to correct. (Sorry, I have edited some things, so I see errors easily!). The Joshua 6:23 should be JUDGES 6:23 and the Psalms 14:26 should be Psalms 12:6. Everything else matched! Good job in finding all of these!!
