Job 15:7

Wisdom

5 For your iniquity instructs your mouth, and you choose the language of the crafty.

6 Your own mouth, not mine, condemns you; your own lips testify against you.

Were you the first man ever born? Were you brought forth before the hills?

8 Do you listen in on the council of God or limit wisdom to yourself?

9 What do you know that we do not? What do you understand that is not clear to us?

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
