And again, The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain.
Why do the nations rage, and the people imagine a vain thing?
The LORD knows the thoughts of man, that they are vanity.
There is no wisdom nor understanding nor counsel against the LORD.
Because, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish hearts were darkened.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
