In context

5 Mighty is the wise in strength, And a man of knowledge is strengthening power,

6 For by plans thou makest for thyself war, And deliverance is in a multitude of counsellors.

7 Wisdom is high for a fool, In the gate he openeth not his mouth.

8 Whoso is devising to do evil, Him they call a master of wicked thoughts.

9 The thought of folly is sin, And an abomination to man is a scorner.

10 Thou hast shewed thyself weak in a day of adversity, Straitened is thy power,

11 If from delivering those taken to death, And those slipping to the slaughter--thou keepest back.
