Proverbs 10:12

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Hatred stirreth up strifes: but love covereth all sins.

A hot-tempered man stirs up strife,
But the slow to anger calms a dispute.

A worthless man digs up evil,
While his words are like scorching fire.

An arrogant man stirs up strife,
But he who trusts in the Lord

will prosper.

An angry man stirs up strife,
And a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression.

What is the source of quarrels and conflicts among you? Is not the source your pleasures that wage war in your members?

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

Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.

Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.

Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
