Ecclesiastes 7:7-10

7Surely extortionH6233 maketh the wiseH2450 man foolish; and a bribe destroyeth the understanding.

8Better is the endH319 of a thingH1697 than the beginning thereof; and the patient in spiritH7307 is betterH2896 than the proud in spiritH7307. 9Be not hasty in thy spiritH7307 to be angryH3707; for angerH3707 resteth in the bosomH2436 of foolsH3684. 10SayH559 not thou, What is the cause that the formerH7223 daysH3117 wereH1961 betterH2896 than these? for thou dost not inquire wisely concerning this.
