Wisdom makes the wise strong, more than ten rulers that are in the city.
A wise one scales the city of the mighty, And brings down the trusted stronghold.
Mighty is the wise in strength, And a man of knowledge strengthens power;
“Counsel is mine, and sound wisdom; I am understanding, mightiness is mine.
A poor and wise youth is better than an old and foolish sovereign who no longer knows how to take warning.
For wisdom protects as silver protects, but the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to those who have it.
