Holy Scripture
Psalms 5:9
A church father on this verse
“Vain is the heart of the philosophers of alien ideas, about whom it is said, "The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain"; from their throats they spew out death-bearing dogmas as they teach the Word of God is not alive, and they bring forth lies and words of death.”

8But I will enter into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: I will worship in thy fear toward thy holy temple.
