Ecclesiastes 9:16-18

Geneva(i) 16 Then said I, Better is wisdome then strength: yet the wisedome of the poore is despised, and his wordes are not heard. 17 The wordes of the wise are more heard in quietnes, then the crye of him that ruleth among fooles. 18 Better is wisedome then weapons of warre: but one sinner destroyeth much good.
