Now a poor wise man was found in the city, and he saved the city by his wisdom. Yet no one remembered that poor man.

Context

13Pia niliona chini ya jua mfano huu wa hekima ambao ulinivutia sana: 14Palikuwa na mji mdogo uliokuwa na watu wachache ndani yake. Mfalme mwenye nguvu akainuka dhidi yake, akauzunguka akaweka jeshi kubwa dhidi yake. 15Katika mji huo kulikuwepo mtu mmoja maskini lakini mwenye hekima, naye akauokoa ule mji kwa hekima yake. Lakini hakuna aliyemkumbuka yule maskini. 16Kwa hiyo, nikasema, “Hekima ni bora kuliko nguvu.” Lakini hekima ya maskini imedharauliwa, wala hakuna anayesikiliza maneno yake. 17Maneno ya utulivu ya mwenye hekima husikiwa kuliko makelele ya mtawala wa wapumbavu.
