²¹ Woe to those who are wise in their own opinion
and clever in their own sight.^[a](A)

⁸ “How can you claim, ‘We are wise;
the law of the Lord is with us’?
In fact, the lying pen of scribes^(A)
has produced falsehood.
⁹ The wise will be put to shame;
they will be dismayed and snared.
They have rejected the word of the Lord,
so what wisdom do they really have?
