Proverbs 24:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ If you go to war, you surely need guidance.
    If you want to win, you need many good advisers.

⁷ Wisdom is too high for foolish people.
    They shouldn’t speak when people meet at the city gate to conduct business.

⁸ Anyone who thinks up sinful things to do
    will be known as one who plans evil.
