Ecclesiastes 7:9-12

The Message

⁹ Don’t be quick to fly off the handle.
Anger boomerangs. You can spot a fool by the lumps on his head.

¹⁰ Don’t always be asking, “Where are the good old days?”
Wise folks don’t ask questions like that.

^11-12 Wisdom is better when it’s paired with money,
Especially if you get both while you’re still living.
Double protection: wisdom and wealth!
Plus this bonus: Wisdom energizes its owner.
