Ecclesiastes 10:2-4

Modern English Version

² The heart of the wise inclines to the right,
    but the heart of a fool to the left.
³ Even when a fool walks on the road,
    he lacks sense,
    and he shows everyone that he is a fool.
⁴ If the anger of a ruler rises against you,
    do not leave your post;
    for calmness pacifies great offenses.
