Ecclesiastes 7:7
Compare all
5 aIt is better to1 hear the rebuke of the wise
Than for a man to hear the song of fools. 
6 aFor like the1 crackling of thorns under a pot,
So is the laughter of the fool.
This also is vanity. 
7 Surely oppression destroys a wise man’s reason,
aAnd a bribe1 debases the heart. 
8 The end of a thing is better than its beginning;
aThe patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit. 
9 aDo not hasten in your spirit to be angry,
For anger rests in the bosom of fools.
