Proverbs 24:1-6 ▼

1 Don’t be envious of evil men, neither desire to be with them;

2 for their hearts plot violence and their lips talk about mischief.

3 Through wisdom a house is built; by understanding it is established;

4 by knowledge the rooms are filled with all rare and beautiful treasure.

5 A wise man has great power. A knowledgeable man increases strength,

6 for by wise guidance you wage your war, and victory is in many advisors.
