Proverbs 15:22

Revised Standard Version (RSV-CI)

Without counsel plans go wrong, but with many advisers they succeed.

See the chapter Copy

Where there is no guidance, a people falls; but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.

Plans are established by counsel; by wise guidance wage war.

For every matter has its time and way, although man's trouble lies heavy upon him.

Now therefore come, let me give you counsel, that you may save your own life and the life of your son Solomon.

Folly is a joy to him who has no sense, but a man of understanding walks aright.

To make an apt answer is a joy to a man, and a word in season, how good it is!

David consulted with the commanders of thousands and of hundreds, with every leader.

for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory.
