Proverbs 22:24

New Century Version

Don’t make friends with quick-tempered people or spend time with those who have bad tempers.

See the chapter Copy

Spend time with the wise and you will become wise, but the friends of fools will suffer.

People with quick tempers cause trouble, but those who control their tempers stop a quarrel.

People who act with stubborn pride are called “proud,” “bragger,” and “mocker.”

An angry person causes trouble; a person with a quick temper sins a lot.
