Proverbs 24:6-8

New King James Version

⁶^(A)For by wise counsel you will wage your own war,
And in a multitude of counselors there is safety.

⁷^(B)Wisdom is too lofty for a fool;
He does not open his mouth in the gate.

⁸He who ^(C)plots to do evil
Will be called a ^[a]schemer.

Proverbs 24:6-8

New International Version

⁶Surely you need guidance to wage war,
and victory is won through many advisers.^(A)

in the assembly at the gate they must not open their mouths.

⁸Whoever plots evil
will be known as a schemer.
