Ecclesiastes 7:7-10

Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.

7For oppression makes a wise person look foolish,
And a bribe corrupts the heart.
8The end of a matter is better than its beginning;
Patience of spirit is better than arrogance of spirit.
9Do not be eager in your spirit to be angry,
For anger resides in the heart of fools.
10Do not say, “Why is it that the former days were better than these?”
For it is not from wisdom that you ask about this.
