Proverbs 24:4-9

⁴Its rooms are filled by knowledge with all kinds of valuable and beautiful objects.

⁵If you have wisdom, you are strong; if you have knowledge, your power increases,

⁶for with wise guidance you can go to war; you will be victorious by having many good advisors.

⁷Wisdom goes over the heads of stupid people; they have nothing to contribute when important matters are discussed.

⁸Anyone who plans to do evil will be seen as a troublemaker.

⁹Plans thought up by stupid people are sinful. Everyone hates those who are scornful of others.
