12. "In old age is wisdom;understanding in a long life."
13. With him are wisdom and power;counsel and understanding are his.
14. If he tears down, it can’t be rebuilt;if he ties a person up, he can’t be set free.
15. If he restricts water, they have drought;if he lets it loose, it overturns the land.
16. With him are might and success;the deceiver and the deceived are his.
17. He leads advisors away barefoot;makes madmen of judges;
18. unties the belt of kings,binds a garment around their loins;
19. leads priests away barefoot;overthrows the well-established;
