1. Do not be envious against evil men,nor desire to be with them;
2. for their heart studies destruction,and their lips talk of mischief.
3. Through wisdom is a house built,and by understanding it is established;
4. and by knowledge the rooms will be filledwith all precious and pleasant riches.
5. A wise man is strong;yes, a man of knowledge increases strength.
6. For by wise counsel you will wage your war,and in multitude of counselors there is safety.
