23 Yahweh says,

“Don’t let the wise man glory in his wisdom.
    Don’t let the mighty man glory in his might.
    Don’t let the rich man glory in his riches.
24 But let him who glories glory in this,
    that he has understanding, and knows me,
that I am Yahweh who exercises loving kindness, justice, and righteousness in the earth,
    for I delight in these things,” says Yahweh.
