Ecclesiastes 7:9 BBE

⁷  The wise are troubled by the ways of the cruel, and the giving of money is the destruction of the heart.

⁸  The end of a thing is better than its start, and a gentle spirit is better than pride.

⁹  Be not quick to let your spirit be angry; because wrath is in the heart of the foolish.

¹⁰  Say not, Why were the days which have gone by better than these? Such a question comes not from wisdom.

¹¹  Wisdom together with a heritage is good, and a profit to those who see the sun.
