16 With Him
are strength and prudence.
The deceived and the deceiver
are His.
17 He leads counselors away plundered,
And makes fools of the judges.
18 He loosens the bonds of kings,
And binds their waist with a belt.
19 He leads
1 princes away plundered,
And overthrows the mighty.
20 aHe deprives the trusted ones of speech,
And takes away the discernment of the elders.
