Ecclesiastes 7:5-7

English Standard Version Anglicised

⁵ It is ^(A)better for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise
    than to hear the song of fools.
^6 (B)For as the crackling of ^(C)thorns under a pot,
    so is the laughter of the fools;
    this also is vanity.
⁷ Surely ^(D)oppression drives the wise into madness,
    and ^(E)a bribe corrupts the heart.
