Job 12:20

He deprives the trusted advisers of speech and takes away the discernment of elders.

It is not the aged who are wise, nor old men who understand what is right.

Because you have closed their minds to understanding, therefore you will not exalt them.

He deprives the leaders of the earth of their understanding; he makes them wander in a trackless desert waste.

For God deprived her of wisdom, and did not impart understanding to her.

The teaching of the righteous feeds many, but fools die for lack of wisdom.

The one who tells the truth will endure forever, but the one who lies will last only for a moment.

The Lord abhors a person who lies, but those who deal truthfully are his delight.

Look, the sovereign Lord who commands armies is about to remove from Jerusalem and Judah every source of security, including all the food and water,
