If a wise man go to law with a fool - whether he deal with him friendly or roughly - he getteth no rest.

An angry man stirreth up strife; and he that beareth evil will in his mind, doth much evil.

Woe worth him, that buildeth his house with unrighteousness, and his parlors with the good that he hath gotten by violence: which never recompenceth his neighbour's labour, nor payeth him his hire.

As for the tree that thou sawest which was so great and mighty, whose height reached unto the heaven, and his breadth into all the world;

For I fear, lest it come to pass, that when I come I shall not find you such as I would: and I shall be found unto you such as I would not. I fear lest there be found among you debate, envying, wrath, strife, backbitings, whisperings, swellings, and discord.

For the wrath of man worketh not that which is righteous before God.

But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, rejoice not: neither be liars against the truth.
