'Strife' in the Bible
A man of fury stirreth up contention, And the slow to anger appeaseth strife.
Better is a dry morsel, and rest with it, Than a house full of the sacrifices of strife.
The beginning of contention is a letting out of waters, And before it is meddled with leave the strife.
The lips of a fool enter into strife, And his mouth for stripes calleth.
An honour to a man is cessation from strife, And every fool intermeddleth.
Cast out a scorner -- and contention goeth out, And strife and shame cease.
Laying hold on the ears of a dog, Is a passer-by making himself wrath for strife not his own.
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!
