Ecclesiastes 7:7-9
Tree of Life Version

7 For extortion drives a wise man crazy,
    and a bribe corrupts the heart.

8 Better the end of a matter than its beginning.
Better a patient spirit than a proud one.
9 Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit,[a]
    for anger settles in the bosom of fools.
