Ecclesiastes 7:7 YLT

⁵  Better to hear a rebuke of a wise man, Than 'for' a man to hear a song of fools,

⁶  For as the noise of thorns under the pot, So 'is' the laughter of a fool, even this 'is' vanity.

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.
