1 Be not thou envious against evil men, neither desire to be with them.

2 For their heart studieth oppression, and their lips talk of mischief.

3 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established:

4 And by knowledge are the chambers filled with all precious and pleasant riches.

5 A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth might.

6 For by wise guidance thou shalt make thy war: and in the multitude of counsellors there is safety.
