8:9Your wise men will be put to shame.
They will be dumbfounded and be brought to judgment.25
Since they have rejected the word of the Lord,
what wisdom do they really have?
Footnotes
- 25 Heb “be trapped.” However, the word “trapped” generally carries with it the connotation of divine judgment. See 540 לָכַד Niph.2, and compare usage in Jer 6:11 for support. The verbs in the first two lines are again the form of the Hebrew verb that emphasizes that the action is as good as done (Hebrew prophetic perfects).
