Ecclesiastes 7:7-10

7SurelyH3588 extortionH6233 maketh a wiseH2450 manH2450 foolish; and a giftH4979 destroyeth the understandingH3820.

8BetterH2896 is the endH319 of a thingH1697 thanH2896 the beginningH7225 thereof: and the patientH750 in spiritH7307 is betterH2896 thanH2896 the proud in spiritH7307.

9Be notH408 hasty in thy spiritH7307 to be angryH3707: for angerH3707 resteth in the bosomH2436 of foolsH3684.

10SayH559 notH3808 thou, WhatH4100 is the causeH1961 that the formerH7223 daysH3117 were betterH2896 thanH3808 theseH428? for thou dost notH3808 inquireH7592 wiselyH2451 concerning this.
