1 Do not want what evil men have. Don't long to be with them.
2 In their hearts they plan to hurt others. With their lips they talk about making trouble.
3 By wisdom a house is built. Through understanding it is made secure.
4 Through knowledge its rooms are filled with priceless and beautiful things.
5 A wise man has great power. A man who has knowledge increases his strength.
6 If you go to war, you need guidance. If you want to win, you need many good advisers.
