Proverbs 26:17

Modern King James Version

He who passes by enraging himself over strife not his own is like one who takes a dog by the ears,

See the chapter Copy

An evil one seeks only rebellion; so a cruel messenger shall be sent against him.

A fool's lips enter into argument, and his mouth calls for strokes.

It is an honor for a man to cease from strife, but every fool exposes himself.

or like a madman who throws firebrands, arrows, and death.

Do not strive with a man without cause, if he has done you no harm.

And He said to him, Man, who made Me a judge or a divider over you?
