New Century Version

Proverbs 24:5-10 New Century Version (NCV)

5. Wise people have great power,and those with knowledge have great strength.

6. So you need advice when you go to war.If you have lots of good advice, you will win.

7. Foolish people cannot understand wisdom.They have nothing to say in a discussion.

8. Whoever makes evil planswill be known as a troublemaker.

9. Making foolish plans is sinful,and making fun of wisdom is hateful.

10. If you give up when trouble comes,it shows that you are weak.
