Job 9:24; Isaiah 40:23; Isaiah 29:14; Isaiah 44:25; 1 Corinthians 1:19

24  bThe earth is given into the hand of the wicked;

he ccovers the faces of its judges

dif it is not he, who then is it?


23  dwho brings princes to nothing,

and makes the rulers of the earth as emptiness.


14  therefore, behold, wI will again

do wonderful things with this people,

with wonder upon wonder;

and xthe wisdom of their wise men shall perish,

and the discernment of their discerning men shall be hidden.


25  who frustrates the signs of liars

and makes fools of diviners,

iwho turns wise men back

and makes their knowledge foolish,


19 For it is written,

fI will destroy the wisdom of the wise,

and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.
