Proverbs 10:12

New International Version

Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.

See the chapter Copy

A hot-tempered person stirs up conflict, but the one who is patient calms a quarrel.

A scoundrel plots evil, and on their lips it is like a scorching fire.

Whoever would foster love covers over an offense, but whoever repeats the matter separates close friends.

The greedy stir up conflict, but those who trust in the Lord will prosper.

An angry person stirs up conflict, and a hot-tempered person commits many sins.

For as churning cream produces butter, and as twisting the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife.”

What causes fights and quarrels among you? Don’t they come from your desires that battle within you?

remember this: Whoever turns a sinner from the error of their way will save them from death and cover over a multitude of sins.

Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.
