John 7:49

This crowd does not know the law. It is contemptible

You are doomed! You think you are wise. You think you are so very clever.

Therefore hear the word of Jehovah, you scornful men, who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,

I will do things that shock and amaze them. I will destroy the wisdom of those who claim to know and understand (discern).

They say: 'Keep away! Do not come near me, for I am too sacred for you! Such people are smoke in my nostrils, a fire that keeps burning all day.'

They answered: You were born in sin and you teach us? Then they threw him out.

Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said to him: Are we also blind?

Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

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

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good conduct that his works are from meekness because of wisdom.
