A passionate man provoketh quarrels: and he that is easily stirred up to wrath, shall be more prone to sin.
A passionate man stirreth up strifes: he that is patient appeaseth those that are stirred up.
He that studieth discords, loveth quarrels: and he that exalteth his door, seeketh ruin.
As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire, so an angry man stirreth up strife.
Hatred stirreth up strifes: and charity covereth all sins.
For where envying and contention is, there is inconstancy, and every evil work.
Be not a friend to an angry man, and do not walk with a furious man:
The impatient man shall work folly: and the crafty man is hateful.
And he that strongly squeezeth the papa to bring out milk, straineth out butter: and he that violently bloweth his nose, bringeth out blood: and he that provoketh wrath bringeth forth strife.
He that nourisheth his servant delicately from his childhood, afterwards shall find him stubborn.
Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath because it was cruel. I Will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.
Iron sharpeneth iron, so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend.
