Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise {man} glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty {man} glory in his might, let not the rich {man} glory in his riches:

Woe unto {them that are} wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! {in their own sight: Heb. before their face}

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise.

Know now that God hath overthrown me, and hath compassed me with his net.

Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power {at all} against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.

By the blast of God they perish, and by the breath of his nostrils are they consumed. {by the breath...: that is, by his anger}

The LORD also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify {themselves} against Judah.

For the arrows of the Almighty {are} within me, the poison whereof drinketh up my spirit: the terrors of God do set themselves in array against me.

For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

Have pity upon me, have pity upon me, O ye my friends; for the hand of God hath touched me.

Behold, thou {art} wiser than Daniel; there is no secret that they can hide from thee:

They are created now, and not from the beginning; even before the day when thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.

I have even from the beginning declared {it} to thee; before it came to pass I shewed {it} thee: lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.

No doubt but ye {are} the people, and wisdom shall die with you.

And the LORD said unto Gideon, The people that {are} with thee {are} too many for me to give the Midianites into their hands, lest Israel vaunt themselves against me, saying, Mine own hand hath saved me.

That I will not {take} from a thread even to a shoelatchet, and that I will not take any thing that {is} thine, lest thou shouldest say, I have made Abram rich:

And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.

Hast thou heard the secret of God? and dost thou restrain wisdom to thyself?

Therefore do my thoughts cause me to answer, and for {this} I make haste. {I make...: Heb. my haste is in me}
