Page 3 / 4 (Pro 18:15–Dan 9:23)
Strike a mocker, and the inexperienced learn a lesson;
rebuke the discerning, and he gains knowledge.
Even a courageous person’s steps are determined by the LORD,
so how can anyone understand his own way?
If you say, “But we didn’t know about this,”
won’t he who weighs hearts consider it?
Won’t he who protects your life know?
Won’t he repay a person according to his work?
When a land is in rebellion, it has many rulers,
but with a discerning and knowledgeable person, it endures.
The evil do not understand justice,
but those who seek the LORD understand everything.
A rich person is wise in his own eyes,
but a poor one who has discernment sees through him.
The righteous person knows the rights[fn] of the poor,
but the wicked one does not understand these concerns.
Again I saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, or the battle to the strong, or bread to the wise, or riches to the discerning, or favor to the skillful; rather, time and chance happen to all of them.
“The ox knows its owner,
and the donkey its master’s feeding trough,
but Israel does not know;
my people do not understand.”
And he replied:
Go! Say to these people:
Keep listening, but do not understand;
keep looking, but do not perceive.
Make the minds[fn] of these people dull;
deafen their ears and blind their eyes;
otherwise they might see with their eyes
and hear with their ears,
understand with their minds,
turn back, and be healed.
For he said:
I have done this by my own strength
and wisdom, for I am clever.
I abolished the borders of nations
and plundered their treasures;
like a mighty warrior, I subjugated the inhabitants.[fn]
Those who see you will stare at you;
they will look closely at you:
“Is this the man who caused the earth to tremble,
who shook the kingdoms,
Every time it passes through,
it will carry you away;
it will pass through every morning —
every day and every night.
Only terror will cause you
to understand the message.[fn]
Therefore, I will again confound these people
with wonder after wonder.
The wisdom of their wise will vanish,
and the perception of their perceptive will be hidden.
You have turned things around,
as if the potter were the same as the clay.
How can what is made say about its maker,
“He didn’t make me”?
How can what is formed
say about the one who formed it,
“He doesn’t understand what he’s doing”?
The reckless mind will gain knowledge,
and the stammering tongue will speak clearly and fluently.
Who did he consult?
Who gave him understanding
and taught him the paths of justice?
Who taught him knowledge
and showed him the way of understanding?
Do you not know?
Have you not heard?
Has it not been declared to you
from the beginning?
Have you not considered
the foundations of the earth?
“You are my witnesses” —
this is the LORD’s declaration —
“and my servant whom I have chosen,
so that you may know and believe me
and understand that I am he.
No god was formed before me,
and there will be none after me.
so he will sprinkle many nations.[fn]
Kings will shut their mouths because of him,
for they will see what had not been told them,
and they will understand what they had not heard.
These dogs have fierce appetites;
they never have enough.
And they are shepherds
who have no discernment;
all of them turn to their own way,
every last one for his own profit.
The righteous person perishes,
and no one takes it to heart;
the faithful are taken away,
with no one realizing
that the righteous person is taken away
because of[fn] evil.
Cross over to the coasts of Cyprus[fn] and take a look.
Send someone to Kedar and consider carefully;
see if there has ever been anything like this:
“For my people are fools;
they do not know me.
They are foolish children,
without understanding.
They are skilled in doing what is evil,
but they do not know how to do what is good.”
Who is the person wise enough to understand this? Who has the LORD spoken to, that he may explain it? Why is the land destroyed and scorched like a wilderness, so no one can pass through?
This is what the LORD of Armies says:
Consider, and summon the women who mourn;
send for the skillful women.
The LORD’s anger will not turn away
until he has completely fulfilled the purposes of his heart.
In time to come you will understand it clearly.
The LORD’s burning anger will not turn back
until he has completely fulfilled the purposes of his heart.
In time to come you will understand it.
About Edom, this is what the LORD of Armies says:
Is there no longer wisdom in Teman?
Has counsel perished from the prudent?
Has their wisdom rotted away?

As I was observing, a male goat appeared, coming from the west across the surface of the entire earth without touching the ground. The goat had a conspicuous horn[fn] between his eyes.
I heard a human voice calling from the middle of the Ulai: “Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.”
So he approached where I was standing; when he came near, I was terrified and fell facedown. “Son of man,” he said to me, “understand that the vision refers to the time of the end.”
I, Daniel, was overcome and lay sick for days. Then I got up and went about the king’s business. I was greatly disturbed by the vision and could not understand it.
in the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, understood from the books according to the word of the LORD to the prophet Jeremiah that the number of years for the desolation of Jerusalem would be seventy.
