You have closed their minds to understanding; therefore you will not let them triumph. (niv)

I thought,‘ Age should speak; advanced years should teach wisdom.’But it is the spirit in a person, the breath of the Almighty, that gives them understanding.It is not only the old who are wise, not only the aged who understand what is right.“ Therefore I say: Listen to me; I too will tell you what I know.I waited while you spoke, I listened to your reasoning; while you were searching for words,I gave you my full attention. But not one of you has proved Job wrong; none of you has answered his arguments.Do not say,‘ We have found wisdom; let God, not a man, refute him.’ (niv)

“ Teach me, and I will be quiet; show me where I have been wrong.How painful are honest words! But what do your arguments prove? (niv)

and disclose to you the secrets of wisdom, for true wisdom has two sides. Know this: God has even forgotten some of your sin. (niv)

“ Would a wise person answer with empty notions or fill their belly with the hot east wind? (niv)

We are fools for Christ, but you are so wise in Christ! We are weak, but you are strong! You are honored, we are dishonored! (niv)

The rich are wise in their own eyes; one who is poor and discerning sees how deluded they are. (niv)

“ Are all these words to go unanswered? Is this talker to be vindicated? (niv)

But the witless can no more become wise than a wild donkey’s colt can be born human. (niv)
