The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; And he that ruleth his spirit, than he that taketh a city.

He that is slow to anger is of great understanding; But he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

A wrathful man stirreth up contention; But he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.

Ye know this , my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

And when Joseph's brethren saw that their father was dead, they said, It may be that Joseph will hate us, and will fully requite us all the evil which we did unto him.

A fool's vexation is presently known; But a prudent man concealeth shame.

The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: Therefore leave off contention, before there is quarrelling.

It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife; But every fool will be quarrelling.

If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; And if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

but I say unto you, love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you;

Then came Peter and said to him, Lord, how oft shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? until seven times?

If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men.

and be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving each other, even as God also in Christ forgave you.

Put on therefore, as God's elect, holy and beloved, a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, meekness, longsuffering;
