Ecclesiastes 7:7-9
New International Reader's Version
7 When a wise person takes wealth by force, they become foolish.
It is sinful to take money from people who want special favors.
8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning.
So it’s better to be patient than proud.
9 Don’t become angry quickly.
Anger lives in the hearts of foolish people.
