Ecclesiastes 7:9-11
1599 Geneva Bible
9 Surely oppression maketh a wise man [a]mad: and the reward destroyeth the heart.
10 The [b]end of a thing is better than the beginning thereof, and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.
11 Be not thou of an hasty spirit to be angry: for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.
