A wise man is full of strength, and a man of knowledge enhances his might,
Wisdom gives strength to the wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.
being strengthened with all power, according to his glorious might, for all endurance and patience with joy;
A wise man scales the city of the mighty and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.
but they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
There was a little city with few men in it, and a great king came against it and besieged it, building great siegeworks against it. But there was found in it a poor, wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that poor man. But I say that wisdom is better than might, though the poor man's wisdom is despised and his words are not heard. The words of the wise heard in quiet are better than the shouting of a ruler among fools. Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner destroys much good.
The way of the Lord is a stronghold to the blameless, but destruction to evildoers.
I have counsel and sound wisdom; I have insight; I have strength.
They go from strength to strength; each one appears before God in Zion.
