12. Is not wisdom found among the aged?Does not long life bring understanding?
13. “With God are wisdom and power;counsel and understanding are his.
14. If he tears down, it cannot be rebuilt;if he imprisons a person, there is no escape.
15. If he holds back the waters, then they dry up;if he releases them, they destroy the land.
16. With him are strength and prudence;both the one who goes astrayand the one who misleads are his.
