Ecclesiastes 7:6-8
New International Reader's Version

6 A foolish person’s laughter
    is like the crackling of thorns burning under a pot.
    That doesn’t have any meaning either.

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.
