Ecclesiastes 9:13-16

13This wisdom I have also seen under the sun, and it seemed great to me:

14There was a little city with few men in it; and a great king came against it, besieged it, and built great snares around it.

15Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city. Yet no one remembered that same poor man.

16Then I said: “Wisdom is better than strength. Nevertheless the poor man’s wisdom is despised, And his words are not heard.
