11 pWisdom is good with an inheritance,
an advantage to those who qsee the sun.
12 For the protection of wisdom is like the protection of money,
and the advantage of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.
19 Wisdom gives strength to the wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.
Keep the King’s Command
1 Who is like the wise?
And who knows the interpretation of a thing?
A man’s wisdom makes his face shine,
and the hardness of his face is changed.
16 But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man’s wisdom is despised and his words are not heard.
18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
10 If the iron is blunt, and one does not sharpen the edge,
he must use more strength,
but wisdom helps one to succeed.1
