Ecclesiastes 7:7-9

Young's Literal Translation

⁷ Surely oppression maketh the wise mad, And a gift destroyeth the heart.

⁸ Better [is] the latter end of a thing than its beginning, Better [is] the patient of spirit, than the haughty of spirit.

⁹ Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry, For anger in the bosom of fools resteth.
