Proverbs 24:6-8

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

⁶ For by wise counsel you can wage your war, and in an abundance of counselors there is victory and safety.

⁷ Wisdom is too high for a ^[a]fool; he opens not his mouth in the gate [where the city’s rulers sit in judgment].

⁸ He who plans to do evil will be called a mischief-maker.
