And profitable to those who see the sun.
Patient Plodding
Ecclesiastes 7.8-10
8The end of a thing is better than its beginning;
The patient in spirit isbetter than the proud in spirit.
9Do not hasten in your spirit to be angry,
For anger rests in the bosom of fools.
10Do not say,
“Why were the former days better than these?”
For you do not inquire wisely concerning this.
The Rebuke of the Wise
Ecclesiastes 7.5-7
5It isbetter for a man to hear the rebuke of the wise
Than for a man to hear the song of fools.
6For like the crackling of thorns under a pot,
So isthe laughter of the fool;
This also is vanity.
7Surely oppression destroys a wise man’s reason,
And a bribe debases the heart.
The Measure of a Wise Heart
Ecclesiastes 7.2-4
2Better to go to the house of mourning
Than to go to the house of feasting,
For that isthe end of all men;
And the living will take itto heart.
3Sorrow isbetter than laughter,
For by a sad countenance the heart is made better.
4The heart of the wise isin the house of mourning,
But the heart of fools isin the house of mirth.
