The LORDknowsthe thoughtsof man,That they are a [mere] breath.
But for Your sakewe are killedalldaylong; We are consideredas sheepto be slaughtered.
"For I know their worksand their thoughts;the time is comingto gatherallnationsand tongues.And they shall comeand seeMy glory.
For it is written,"I WILL DESTROYTHE WISDOMOF THE WISE,AND THE CLEVERNESSOF THE CLEVERI WILL SET ASIDE."
For sincein the wisdomof Godthe worldthroughits wisdomdid not [come to] knowGod,Godwas well-pleasedthroughthe foolishnessof the message preachedto savethosewho believe.
Becausethe foolishnessof Godis wiserthan men,and the weaknessof Godis strongerthan men.
and again,"THE LORDKNOWSTHE REASONINGSof the wise,THAT THEY ARE USELESS."
