Proverbs 21:22
Berean Standard Bible
A wise man scales the city of the mighty and pulls down the stronghold in which they trust.
Context
20Precious treasures and oil are in the dwelling of the wise,
but a foolish man consumes them. 21He who pursues righteousness and loving devotion
finds life, righteousness, and honor. 22A wise man scales the city of the mighty
and pulls down the stronghold in which they trust. 23He who guards his mouth and tongue
keeps his soul from distress. 24Mocker is the name of the proud and arrogant man—
of him who acts with excessive pride.
