Verse 372. There Is No Wisdom In Those Who Do Not Think

No concentration wisdom lacks,
no wisdom concentration lacks,
in whom are both these qualities
near to Nibbana is that one.

Explanation: For one who lacks meditation there is no wisdom. Both meditation and wisdom are essential and cannot be had without the other. If in a person, both wisdom and meditation are present, he is close to Nibbana.
