5 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “city” →
Wisdom strengtheneth the wise more than ten mighty men which are in the city.
And so I saw the wicked buried, who had come and gone from the place of the holy, and they were forgotten in the city where they had so done: this is also vanity.
There was a little city, and few men within it; and there came a great king against it, and besieged it, and built great bulwarks against it:
Now there was found in it a poor wise man, and he by his wisdom delivered the city; yet no man remembered that same poor man.
The labour of the foolish wearieth every one of them, because he knoweth not how to go to the city.
