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.”
And their works are in the dark;
bThey say, “Who sees us?” and, “Who knows us?”
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
Till aLebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field,
And the fruitful field be esteemed as a forest?
And the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscurity and out of darkness.
And bthe poor among men shall rejoice
In the Holy One of Israel.

Isaiah 29:16
Surely - All your subtle devices, by which you turn yourselves into all shapes. As clay - It is no more to me, than the clay is to the potter, who can alter and dispose it as he sees fit.
