1 Samuel 23:22

Therefore men revere him. He doesn’t regard any who are wise of heart.”

Then they said, “Come! Let’s devise plans against Jeremiah; for the law won’t perish from the priest, nor counsel from the wise, nor the word from the prophet. Come, and let’s strike him with the tongue, and let’s not give heed to any of his words.”

He has shown strength with his arm. He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, “He has taken the wise in their craftiness.”

Come, let’s deal wisely with them, lest they multiply, and it happen that when any war breaks out, they also join themselves to our enemies and fight against us, and escape out of the land.”

There was not a man left in Ai or Bethel who didn’t go out after Israel. They left the city open, and pursued Israel.

Someone told David, saying, “Ahithophel is among the conspirators with Absalom.” David said, “Yahweh, please turn the counsel of Ahithophel into foolishness.”

but if you return to the city, and tell Absalom, ‘I will be your servant, O king. As I have been your father’s servant in time past, so I will now be your servant; then will you defeat for me the counsel of Ahithophel.’

When Ahithophel saw that his counsel was not followed, he saddled his donkey, arose, and went home, to his city, and set his house in order, and hanged himself; and he died, and was buried in the tomb of his father.

So when Ahijah heard the sound of her feet as she came in at the door, he said, “Come in, Jeroboam’s wife! Why do you pretend to be another? For I am sent to you with heavy news.

The king said, “Who is in the court?” Now Haman had come into the outer court of the king’s house, to speak to the king about hanging Mordecai on the gallows that he had prepared for him.

So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the king’s wrath was pacified.

but when this became known to the king, he commanded by letters that his wicked plan, which he had planned against the Jews, should return on his own head, and that he and his sons should be hanged on the gallows.

He takes the wise in their own craftiness; the counsel of the cunning is carried headlong.

An empty-headed man becomes wise when a man is born as a wild donkey’s colt.

For your iniquity teaches your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.

With the pure, you will show yourself pure. With the crooked you will show yourself shrewd.

For the perverse is an abomination to Yahweh, but his friendship is with the upright.

therefore, behold, I will proceed to do a marvelous work among this people, even a marvelous work and a wonder; and the wisdom of their wise men will perish, and the understanding of their prudent men will be hidden.”

Yet he also is wise, and will bring disaster, and will not call back his words, but will arise against the house of the evildoers, and against the help of those who work iniquity.

They answered Jesus, “We don’t know.” Jesus said to them, “Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.”

But Paul’s sister’s son heard they were lying in wait, and he came and entered into the barracks and told Paul.
