CHAPTER 8:
8 How do ye say, We are wise, and the
law of the LORD is with us? Lo, certainly
in vain made he it; the pen of the scribes
is in vain.
9 The wise men are ashamed, they are
dismayed and taken: lo, they have rejected
the word of the LORD; and what wisdom is
in them?

unto them a reproach; they have no delight
in it.

CHAPTER 28:
12 But where shall wisdom be found? and
where is the place of understanding?

living, and kept close from the fowls of
the air.

heard the fame thereof with our ears.
23 God understandeth the way thereof,
and he knoweth the place thereof.
28 And unto man he said, Behold, the fear
of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart
from evil is understanding.

2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that
which is not bread? and your labour for
that which satisfieth not? hearken
diligently unto me, and eat ye that which
is good, and let your soul delight itself in

3 Incline your ear, and come unto me:
hear, and your soul shall live; and I will
make an everlasting covenant with you,
even the sure mercies of David.

THE FIRST EPISTLE OF PAUL THE APOSTLE TO THE CORINTHIANS.
CHAPTER 2: 13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. 14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. 15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
