Ecclesiastes 7:8

Wisdom'Although Vulnerable'Is Beneficial

⁷ For, oppression, maddeneth the wise, - and a bribe, destroyeth the understanding. ⁸ Better the latter end of a thing, than the beginning thereof, - Better a patient spirit, than a haughty spirit. ⁹ Do not be rash in thy spirit, to be indignant, - for, indignation, in the bosom of dullards, doth remain.
