Ecclesiastes 9:15-18
New King James Version
15 Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that same poor man.
16 Then I said:
“Wisdom is better than (A)strength.
Nevertheless (B)the poor man’s wisdom is despised,
And his words are not heard.
17 Words of the wise, spoken quietly, should be heard
Rather than the shout of a ruler of fools.
18 Wisdom is better than weapons of war;
But (C)one sinner destroys much good.”

By taking heed according to Your word.
10 With my whole heart I have (A)sought You;
Oh, let me not wander from Your commandments!
11 (B)Your word I have hidden in my heart,
That I might not sin against You.
