Proverbs 11:14

New English Translation

When there is no guidance a nation falls, but there is success in the abundance of counselors.

See the chapter Copy

Now let me give you some advice as to how you can save your life and your son Solomon’s life.

He did evil in the sight of the Lord like Ahab’s dynasty because, after his father’s death, they gave him advice that led to his destruction.

Plans fail when there is no counsel, but with abundant advisers they are established.

Insight is like a life-giving fountain to the one who possesses it, but folly leads to the discipline of fools.

Plans are established by counsel, so make war with guidance.

for with guidance you wage your war, and with numerous advisers there is victory.
