so that their hands achieve no success.

11 The princes of bZoan are utterly foolish;

“I am a son of the wise,
a son of ancient kings”?

Jeremiah 6:15

15 cWere they ashamed when they committed abomination?
No, they were not at all ashamed;

dat the time that I punish them, they shall be overthrown,”

says the Lord.

hHas counsel perished from the prudent?
iHas their wisdom vanished?

Ezekiel 7:26

perishes from the priest and ocounsel from the elders.

1 Corinthians 1:26-29

26For consider your calling, brothers: pnot many of you were wise according to worldly standards,
Greek  according to the flesh
not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth.
27But rGod chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; sGod chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28God chose what is low and despised in the world, even tthings that are not, to ubring to nothing things that are, 29so vthat no human being
Greek  no flesh
might boast in the presence of God.
