押沙龍獻祭的時候，派人去把大衛的謀士基羅人亞希多弗從他的本城基羅請了來。於是謀反勢力強大起來，擁護押沙龍的民眾越來越多。

亞希多弗見自己的建議沒有被採納，就給驢子備上鞍，起身回本鄉本家去。他安排好家裡的事，然後上吊死了。他被葬在他父親的墳墓裡。

押沙龍和以色列眾人都說：「亞基人戶篩的建議比亞希多弗的建議好。」耶和華定意要破壞亞希多弗的好建議，好降災禍給押沙龍。

那時候，耶穌說：「父啊，天地的主，我讚美你，因為你把這些事向有智慧的和有學問的人隱藏起來，而向小孩子們顯明出來。

因為在神看來，這世界的智慧就是愚拙；原來經上記著：「神使智慧人落入自己的詭計中」；又說：「主知道智慧人的思想是虛妄的。」

到底你們中間誰是有智慧、有見識的呢？他就應當藉著良好的品行，以智慧的溫柔，使自己的行為顯明出來；但如果你們心裡懷著苦毒的嫉妒和爭競，就不要自誇、說謊而抵擋真理。這種智慧不是從上面下來的，而是屬地的，屬血氣的，屬鬼魔的。要知道，哪裡有嫉妒和爭競，哪裡就有混亂和各樣的惡事。至於從上面來的智慧，首先是純潔的，然後是和平的、謙和的、溫順的，滿有憐憫和美好的果子的，是不偏私、不虛假的；並且義行的果子，是由那些締造和平的人，在和平中種下的。

「於是主人因這個不義的管家做事精明，就稱讚他。這樣看來，今世的兒女在自己的世代裡，比光明的兒女還要聰明。

大衛求問耶和華說：「我該去追趕這些匪徒嗎？我能追上他們嗎？」耶和華回答他：「去追趕，你必定追上，必定把一切救回來。」

如果有人講說，要照著神的話語講說；如果有人服事，要照著神所賜的力量服事，好讓神在一切事上藉著耶穌基督得榮耀。願榮耀和權能都歸於他，直到永永遠遠！阿們。

他們自稱是有智慧的，卻成了愚拙，

幾隻死蒼蠅使做香的膏油腐爛發臭，一點點愚昧也能壓過智慧和尊榮。

我向你呼救，向你的至聖所舉起雙手的時候，求你垂聽我懇求的聲音。

耶和華的律法純全，使人靈魂甦醒；耶和華的法度信實，使無知的人有智慧；
