Proverbs 29:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.

Hatred awaketh contentions, And over all transgressions love covereth.

A man of fury stirreth up contention, And the slow to anger appeaseth strife.

Whoso is loving transgression is loving debate, Whoso is making high his entrance is seeking destruction.

Coal to burning coals, and wood to fire, And a man of contentions to kindle strife.

For the churning of milk bringeth out butter, And the wringing of the nose bringeth out blood, And the forcing of anger bringeth out strife!

Whoso is loving transgression is loving debate, Whoso is making high his entrance is seeking destruction.

Shew not thyself friendly with an angry man, And with a man of fury go not in,

for where zeal and rivalry are, there is insurrection and every evil matter;

Strive not with a man without cause, If he have not done thee evil.

Shew not thyself friendly with an angry man, And with a man of fury go not in,

Coal to burning coals, and wood to fire, And a man of contentions to kindle strife.

Therefore the king hath been angry and very wroth, and hath said to destroy all the wise men of Babylon;
