Proverbs 24:5-11
English Standard Version
5 (A)A wise man is full of strength,
and a man of knowledge enhances his might,
6 for by (B)wise guidance you can wage your war,
and in (C)abundance of counselors there is victory.
7 Wisdom is (D)too high for a fool;
in (E)the gate he does not open his mouth.
8 Whoever (F)plans to do evil
will be called a schemer.
9 (G)The devising[a] of folly is sin,
and (H)the scoffer is an abomination to mankind.
10 If you (I)faint in the day of adversity,
your strength is small.
11 (J)Rescue those who are being taken away to death;
hold back those who are stumbling to the slaughter.
