* This wisdom I have seen also under the sun , and it [seemed ] great to me . * [There was ] a little city , and few men in it ; and a great king came against it and besieged it , and built huge bulwarks against it . * And a poor wise man was found in it , and he by his wisdom delivered the city ; yet no man remembered that poor man . * And I said , Wisdom [is ] better than strength ; but the poor man 's wisdom [is ] despised , and his words are not heard . * The words of the wise [are ] heard in quiet more than the cry of him who rules among fools . * Wisdom [is ] better than weapons of war ; but one sinner destroys much good .
