To glory in what

Both Jeremiah and 1Corinthians fall in Spoke in the Biblewheel. It is well read together. Check this out:

Jeremiah 9:23 (KJV) 23 Thus saith the LORD, Let not the wise [man] glory in his wisdom, neither let the mighty [man] glory in his might, let not the rich [man] glory in his riches:

Jeremiah 9:24 (KJV) 24 But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I [am] the LORD which exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these [things] I delight, saith the LORD.

1 Corinthians 1:20 (KJV)
Where [is] the wise? where [is] the scribe? where [is] the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

1 Corinthians 1:26 (KJV) 26 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, [are called]:

1 Corinthians 1:27 (KJV) 27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

1 Corinthians 1:29 (KJV)
That no flesh should glory in his presence.

1 Corinthians 1:31 (KJV)
That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

1 Corinthians 3:21 (KJV)
Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;

Psalm 34 in an alphabetic psalm. Each verse starts with a letter of the hebrew alphabet which was their style poetic writing. Now, taking into consideration that the bible has 66 books divided into 3 cycles of 22s according to the 22 letters of the hebrew alphabet as the picture of the wheel shows, both Jeremiah and 1Corinthians on the 2nd Spoke (as in the Spoke of a wheel) encourage to boast or glory IN the LORD as mentioned in the second alphabetic psalm verse. Exodus, Jeremiah and 1Corinthians are well read together because they share a lot of things. 1Corinthians 10 talks about Exodus 32s idolatry and concludes "flee from idolatry" which is the 2nd Commandment. In Exodus the second book of the Bible the children of Israel got a capital punishment for committing idolatry going against the second commandment.
