LITV(i)
13 This wisdom I saw also under the sun, and it is great to me:
14 There was a little city, and few men in it. And a great king came against it, and besieged it, and built huge siege works against it.
15 And there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom saved the city. Yet no man remembered that poor man!
16 And I said, Wisdom is better than strength; but the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.
17 The words of wise men are heard in quiet, more than the cry of one who rules among fools.
18 Wisdom is better than weapons of conflict; but one sinner destroys much good.
