Ecclesiastes 7:19
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Wisdom makes the wise man stronger than ten rulers in a city.
In context
17 Do not be excessively wicked, and do not be a fool. Why should you die before your time?
18 It is good to grasp the one and not let the other slip from your hand. For he who fears God will follow both warnings.
19 Wisdom makes the wise man stronger than ten rulers in a city.
20 Surely there is no righteous man on earth who does good and never sins.
21 Do not pay attention to every word that is spoken, or you may hear your servant cursing you.
