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.
8 Those who plot evilwill be called master schemers.
9 The scheming of fools is sin;people detest mockers.
10 If you show yourself weak on a day of distress,your strength is too small.
11 Rescue those being taken off to death;and from those staggering to the slaughter, don’t hold back.
