Proverbs 30:33

Modern King James Version

Surely the churning of milk brings forth butter, and the wringing of the nose brings forth blood; so the forcing of wrath brings forth fighting.

See the chapter Copy

An angry man stirs up fighting, and a furious man abounds in sin.

He who is of a proud heart stirs up fighting; but he who puts his trust in Jehovah shall be made fat.

The beginning of strife is like letting out water; therefore leave off fighting, before it breaks out.

As coals to burning coals, and wood to fire, so is a quarrelsome man to kindle fighting.

A perverse man causes fighting, and a whisperer separates chief friends.

A wrathful man stirs up fighting, but one slow to anger calms fighting.

And he took butter and milk, and the calf which he had dressed, and set it before them. And he stood by them under the tree, and they ate.

Hatred stirs up fights, but love covers all sins.

The words of King Lemuel, the prophecy which his mother taught him.
