22 A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, and casteth down the strength of the confidence thereof.
22 One who is wise can go up against the city of the mighty and pull down the stronghold in which they trust.
22 A wise man scales the city of the mighty and brings down the stronghold in which they trust.
22 One sage entered a whole city of armed soldiers - their trusted defenses fell to pieces!
22 A wise man scales the city of the mighty, And brings down the trusted stronghold.
22 The wise conquer the city of the strong and level the fortress in which they trust.
