Ecclesiastes 7:9-11

EasyEnglish Bible

⁹ Control your angry thoughts.
    Only fools allow their anger to continue.
¹⁰ Do not say, ‘Everything was a lot better in the past.’
    Those are not wise thoughts.
¹¹ It is good to have wisdom,
    like money that you receive from your father.
    Wisdom helps everyone who lives.
