Ecclesiastes 9:17

VisdomOrd og tale

15 Now a poor wise man was found in the city, and he saved the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.

16 And I said, “Wisdom is better than strength, but the wisdom of the poor man is despised, and his words are not heeded.”

The calm words of the wise are heeded over the shouts of a ruler among fools.

18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
