Proverbs 19:19

The Passion Translation

A hot-tempered man has to pay the price for his anger. If you bail him out once, you’ll do it a dozen times.

See the chapter Copy

Don’t be afraid to discipline your children while they’re still young enough to learn. Don’t indulge your children or be swayed by their protests.

Listen well to wise counsel and be willing to learn from correction so that by the end of your life you’ll be known for your wisdom.

If you live without restraint and are unable to control your temper, you’re as helpless as a city with broken-down defenses, open to attack.

The source of strife is found in an angry heart, for sin surrounds the life of a furious man.
