כִּ֣י ׀ אֱוִ֣יל עַמִּ֗י אוֹתִי֙ לֹ֣א יָדָ֔עוּ בָּנִ֤ים סְכָלִים֙ הֵ֔מָּה וְלֹ֥א נְבוֹנִ֖ים הֵ֑מָּה חֲכָמִ֥ים הֵ֙מָּה֙ לְהָרַ֔ע וּלְהֵיטִ֖יב לֹ֥א יָדָֽעוּ׃
내 백성은 나를 알지 못하는 우준한 자요 지각이 없는 미련한 자식이라 악을 행하기에는 지각이 있으나 선을 행하기에는 무지하도다
The Gate of Unity
Now, [in Chochmah] too there is the matter of [the verses],11Proverbs 8:12; See Maamarei Admor HaEmtzaee, Devarim Vol. 2, pg. 532; Torat Chayim, Noach pg. 79a “I am wisdom, I dwell with craftiness,” or,12Deuteronomy 8:12; Maamarei Admor HaEmtzaee, Devarim Vol. 4, pg. 1,496. “My father was [nearly] destroyed by the Aramite,” which refers to Chochmah of the Kelipah-husks, that is only for the sake of wickedness, as in,13Jeremiah 4:22 “They are wise to do evil,” but not to do good whatsoever. This is not true Chochmah-wisdom, but rather only craftiness and falsehood, as known.
