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