NSB(i)
15 Now there was found in it a poor wise man. By his wisdom he delivered the city. Yet no man remembered that same poor man.
16 Then I said: »Wisdom is better than strength.« Nevertheless the poor man's wisdom is despised, and his words are not heard.
17 The words of the wise heard in quietness are more than the loud cry of the ruler of fools.
18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war, yet one sinner destroys much good.
