1 Don’t envy evil people,and don’t long to be with them.
2 Their hearts are focused on violence,and their lips speak of trouble.
3 By wisdom a house is built;by understanding it is established.
4 By knowledge rooms are filledwith all precious and pleasant wealth.
5 A wise person is mightier than a strong one;a knowledgeable person than a powerful one.
6 You should make war with guidance;victory comes with many counselors.
7 Wisdom is beyond foolish people.They don’t open their mouths in the gate.
