Berean Study Bible
A land in rebellion has many rulers, but a man of understanding and knowledge maintains order.

Young's Literal Translation
By the transgression of a land many [are] its heads. And by an intelligent man, Who knoweth right—it is prolonged.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
When a land is in rebellion, it has many rulers, but with a discerning and knowledgeable person, it endures.

New American Standard Bible
By the transgression of a land many are its princes, But by a man of understanding [and] knowledge, so it endures.

King James Bible
For the transgression of a land many [are] the princes thereof: but by a man of understanding [and] knowledge the state [thereof] shall be prolonged.
