A wise man sealeth the city of the mighty; wisdom and policy is ofttimes more considerable and powerful than strength. The strength of the confidence thereof; the strongest forts, to which the citizens trust most for their defence.

Proverbs 21:22

22 A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
