Słów ludzi mądrych w pokoju słuchają, więcej niżli wołania panów miedzy szalonemi.
Słów ludzi mądrych spokojnie słuchać należy, raczej niż krzyku panującego między głupimi.
Słowa mędrców słuchane w ciszy są lepsze niż krzyk władcy pośród głupców.
Spokojne słowa mędrców winny być wysłuchane prędzej, niż krzyk przewodniczącego wśród głupców.
Słów ludzi mądrych spokojnie słuchać należy, raczej niż krzyku panującego między głupimi.
Spokojnych słów ludzi mądrych należy słuchać bardziej niż krzyku tego, który panuje wśród głupców.
Słowa mędrców, które znajdują posłuch, są lepsze niż krzyk władcy głupców.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
The words of wise [men are] heard in quiet,.... That is, by some persons and at some times, though not by all persons and always; or they are to be heard, or should be heard, though they seldom be, even the words of wise men that are poor: these are to be heard quietly and patiently, without any tumult and contradiction; or should be heard, being delivered with a low and submissive voice, without any noise, or blustering pride, or passion, sedately and with great humility, submitting them to the judgment of others; which sense the comparison seems to require;
more than the cry of him that ruleth among fools; more than the noisy words of a foolish governor; or than the dictates of an imperious man, delivered in a clamorous and blustering way; by which he obtains authority among such fools as himself, who are influenced more by the pomp and noise of words than by the force of true wisdom and reason; but all right judges will give the preference to the former. The Targum interprets it of the silent prayer of the wise being received by the Lord, more than the clamour of the wicked.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 17. The words of wise men are heard in quiet — In the tumult of war the words of Archimedes were not heard; and his life was lost.
