Ecclesiastes 7:7-12 - Wisdom'Although Vulnerable'Is Beneficial

7 Whoso doeth wrong, maketh a wise man to go out of his wit, and destroyeth a gentle heart. 8 The end of a thing is better than the beginning. The patient of spirit is better than the high minded. 9 Be not hastily angry in thy mind, for wrath resteth in the bosom of a fool. 10 Say not thou, "What is the cause that the days of the old time were better than they that be now?" For that were no wise question. 11 Wisdom is better than riches; yea, much more worth than the eyesight. 12 For wisdom defendeth as well as money, and the excellent knowledge and wisdom giveth life to him that have it in possession.
