Ecclesiastes 10:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ If a ruler becomes angry with you, don’t resign your position. If you remain calm, you can make up for serious offenses.

⁵ There is a tragedy that I’ve seen under the sun, an error often made by rulers. ⁶ Foolish people are often given high positions, and rich people are left to fill lower positions.
