14. If he tears down, none can rebuild;if he shuts a man in, none can open.
15. If he withholds the waters, they dry up;if he sends them out, they overwhelm the land.
16. With him are strength and sound wisdom;the deceived and the deceiver are his.
17. He leads counselors away stripped,and judges he makes fools.
18. He looses the bonds of kingsand binds a waistcloth on their hips.
