Ecclesiastes 9:16
Thomson 1808
Now I have said, Wisdom is better than power, yet the wisdom of this poor man is despised and his words are not regarded.
Brenton 1851
And I said, Wisdom is better than power: yet the wisdom of the poor man is set at nought, and his words not listened to.
Greek · Brenton
Καὶ εἶπα ἐγὼ, ἀγαθὴ σοφία ὑπὲρ δύναμιν· καὶ σοφία τοῦ πένητος ἐξουδενωμένη, καὶ οἱ λόγοι αὐτοῦ οὐκ εἰσακουόμενοι.
