ARighteousness and justice
BWisdom and Money✓ Correct Answer
CPrayer and faithfulness
DPeaceful mind and tenacity of spirit
Answer & Explanation
✓ Wisdom and Money
Wisdom is considered a defense because according to Proverbs 2 those who have her are sustained and preserved by her. Though Ecclesiastes is not clear as to why money is considered a defense we can make use of other scriptures to determine it's meaning. Psalm 41:1 tells us that we are blessed if we consider the poor for the Lord will be our Deliverer in our day of trouble. Proverbs 19:17 tells us that those who have pity on the poor lends to the Lord, and what he has given to the Lord will be repaid to him again. However, between the two, Wisdom is considered more desirable. Ecclesiastes 7:12
