and (C)grope at noonday as in the night.

36 A sword against the diviners,
that they may become fools!
A sword against her (A)warriors,
that they may be destroyed!
Isaiah 47:12-14
English Standard Version
12 (A)Stand fast in your enchantments
and your many sorceries,
with which you have labored from your youth;
perhaps you may be able to succeed;
perhaps you may inspire terror.
13 You are wearied with your many counsels;
let them stand forth and save you,
(B)those who divide the heavens,
who gaze at the stars,
who at the new moons make known
what shall come upon you.
14 Behold, (C)they are like stubble;
(D)the fire consumes them;
they cannot deliver themselves
from the power of the flame.
No coal for warming oneself is this,
no fire to sit before!
Jeremiah 51:57

57 (A)I will make drunk her officials and her wise men,
(B)her governors, her commanders, and her warriors;
they shall sleep a perpetual sleep and not wake,
declares (C)the King, whose name is the Lord of hosts.
1 Corinthians 1:20-27
English Standard Version
20 (A)Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? (B)Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach[a] to save those who believe. 22 For (C)Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ (D)crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ (E)the power of God and (F)the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
26 For consider your calling, brothers: (G)not many of you were wise according to worldly standards,[b] not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27 But (H)God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; (I)God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong;

Jeremiah 28:9-17
English Standard Version
9 (A)As for the prophet who prophesies peace, when the word of that prophet comes to pass, then it will be known that the Lord has truly sent the prophet.”
10 Then the prophet Hananiah took the (B)yoke-bars from the neck of Jeremiah the prophet and broke them. 11 And Hananiah spoke in the presence of all the people, saying, (C)“Thus says the Lord: (D)Even so will I break the yoke of Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon from the neck of (E)all the nations within two years.” But Jeremiah the prophet went his way.
12 Sometime after the prophet (F)Hananiah had broken the yoke-bars from off the neck of Jeremiah the prophet, the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah: 13 “Go, tell Hananiah, ‘Thus says the Lord: You have broken wooden bars, but you have made in their place bars of iron. 14 For thus says the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel: I have put upon the neck of all these nations (G)an iron yoke to serve Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon, (H)and they shall serve him, (I)for I have given to him even the beasts of the field.’” 15 And Jeremiah the prophet said to the prophet Hananiah, “Listen, Hananiah, (J)the Lord has not sent you, (K)and you have made this people trust in a lie. 16 Therefore thus says the Lord: ‘Behold, I will remove you from the face of the earth. This year you shall die, (L)because you have uttered rebellion against the Lord.’”
17 In that same year, in the seventh month, the prophet Hananiah died.

Isaiah 19:11-14
English Standard Version
11 The princes of (A)Zoan are utterly foolish;
the wisest counselors of Pharaoh give stupid counsel.
How can you say to Pharaoh,
“I am a son of the wise,
a son of ancient kings”?
12 Where then are your (B)wise men?
Let them tell you
that they might know what the Lord of hosts has purposed against Egypt.
13 The princes of (C)Zoan have become fools,
and the princes of (D)Memphis are deluded;
those who are the (E)cornerstones of her tribes
have made Egypt stagger.
14 The Lord has mingled within her (F)a spirit of confusion,
and they will make Egypt stagger in all its deeds,
(G)as a drunken man staggers in his vomit.
