13 Therefore the Lord said:
a“Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths
And honor Me bwith their lips,
But have removed their hearts far from Me,
And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,
a“Inasmuch as these people draw near with their mouths
And honor Me bwith their lips,
But have removed their hearts far from Me,
And their fear toward Me is taught by the commandment of men,
14 aTherefore, behold, I will again do a marvelous work
Among this people,
A marvelous work and a wonder;
bFor the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”
Among this people,
A marvelous work and a wonder;
bFor the wisdom of their wise men shall perish,
And the understanding of their prudent men shall be hidden.”
15 aWoe to those who seek deep to hide their counsel far from the Lord,
And their works are in the dark;
bThey say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?”
And their works are in the dark;
bThey say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?”
16 Surely you have things turned around!
Shall the potter be esteemed as the clay;
For shall the athing made say of him who made it,
“He did not make me”?
Or shall the thing formed say of him who formed it,
“He has no understanding”?
Shall the potter be esteemed as the clay;
For shall the athing made say of him who made it,
“He did not make me”?
Or shall the thing formed say of him who formed it,
“He has no understanding”?
Future Recovery of Wisdom
17 Is it not yet a very little while
Till aLebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest?
Till aLebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest?
