6 Surely you need guidance to wage war, and victory is won through many advisers.
6 For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counsellors there is safety.
6 for by wise guidance you can wage your war, and in abundance of counselors there is victory.
6 Strategic planning is the key to warfare; to win, you need a lot of good counsel.
6 For by wise counsel you will wage your own war, And in a multitude of counselors there is safety.
6 So don't go to war without wise guidance; victory depends on having many advisers.

Commentary on Proverbs 24:3-6
(Read Proverbs 24:3-6)
Piety and prudence in outward affairs, both go together to complete a wise man. By knowledge the soul is filled with the graces and comforts of the spirit, those precious and pleasant riches. The spirit is strengthened for the spiritual work and the spiritual warfare, by true wisdom.
