Thematic Bible
Contentiousness » The contentious spirit
He loveth transgression that loveth a quarrel; he that maketh high his gate seeketh destruction.
A furious man stirreth up contention; but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
As coals for hot coals, and wood for fire, so is a contentious man to inflame strife.
I am for peace; but when I speak, they are for war.
Who devise mischiefs in their heart; every day are they banded together for war.
A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for stripes.
Why dost thou cause me to see iniquity, and lookest thou upon grievance? For spoiling and violence are before me; and there is strife, and contention riseth up.
