Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all sins.
And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.”
He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates friends.
A wrathful man stirs up strife, But he who is slow to anger allays contention.
let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death and cover a multitude of sins.
Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members?
He who is of a proud heart stirs up strife, But he who trusts in the Lord will be prospered.
An ungodly man digs up evil, And it is on his lips like a burning fire.
An angry man stirs up strife, And a furious man abounds in transgression.
For as the churning of milk produces butter, And wringing the nose produces blood, So the forcing of wrath produces strife.
