15. and there hath been found in it a poor wise man, and he hath delivered the city by his wisdom, and men have not remembered that poor man!
16. And I said, `Better [is] wisdom than might, and the wisdom of the poor is despised, and his words are not heard.' --
17. The words of the wise in quiet are heard, More than the cry of a ruler over fools.
18. Better [is] wisdom than weapons of conflict, And one sinner destroyeth much good!
