Ecclesiastes 7:8-9

NAS

NIV

8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning; Patience of spirit is better than haughtiness of spirit.
8 The end of a matter is better than its beginning, and patience is better than pride.
9 Do not be eager in your heart to be angry, For anger resides in the bosom of fools.
9 Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
