Proverbs 10:12

The Scriptures 1998

Hatred stirs up strife, But love covers all transgressions.

See the chapter Copy

And above all have fervent love for one another, because love covers a great number of sins.

He who covers a transgression seeks love, But he who repeats a matter separates intimate friends.

A man of wrath stirs up strife, But he who is patient appeases strife.

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the straying of his way shall save a life from death and cover a great number of sins.

Where do fightings and strivings come from among you? Do they not come from your pleasures that battle in your members?

He who is greedy stirs up strife, But he who trusts in יהוה prospers.

A man of Beliyaʽ

A man of displeasure stirs up strife, And a master of rage has many a transgression.

For as milk under pressure brings forth curds, And as a nose under pressure brings forth blood, So wrath under pressure brings forth strife.
