In context

18 It is well that thou shouldst lay fast hold of this, but, even from the other, do not withdraw thy hand,—for, he that revereth God, shall come forth out of them all.

19 Wisdom, bringeth more strength to a wise man, than ten heroes, that are in the city.

22 For truly, many times, thy heart knoweth,—that, even thou thyself, hast reviled others.

23 All this, have I proved by wisdom,—I said, I will be wise, but, that, was far from me.

24 Far away, is that which hath been,—and deep, deep, who can find it out?
