Ecclesiastes 10:4-6

Amplified Bible

⁴ If the temper of the ruler rises against you, do not leave your post [showing resistance], because composure and calmness prevent great offenses.

⁵ There is an evil I have seen under the sun, like an error which proceeds from the ruler— ⁶ folly is set in many exalted places and in great dignity while the rich sit in humble places.
