Ecclesiastes 9:13-15

Legacy Standard Bible

¹³ Also this I came to see as wisdom under the sun, and ^[a]it was great to me. ¹⁴ There ^(A)was a small city with few men in it, and a great king came to it, surrounded it, and built large siegeworks against it. ¹⁵ But there was found in it a ^(B)poor wise man, and he provided a way of escape for the city ^(C)by his wisdom. Yet ^(D)no one remembered that poor man.
