⁶And the LORD said unto Cain, Why art thou wroth? and why is thy countenance fallen?

⁷Cursed be their anger, for it was fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

⁹But a prophet of the LORD was there, whose name was Oded: and he went out before the host that came to Samaria, and said unto them, Behold, because the LORD God of your fathers was wroth with Judah, he hath delivered them into your hand, and ye have slain them in a rage that reacheth up unto heaven.

²For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.

²⁹Be ye afraid of the sword: for wrath bringeth the punishments of the sword, that ye may know there is a judgment.

⁸Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.

³Because of the voice of the enemy, because of the oppression of the wicked: for they cast iniquity upon me, and in wrath they hate me.

¹⁰Surely the wrath of man shall praise thee: the remainder of wrath shalt thou restrain.

³⁴For jealousy is the rage of a man: therefore he will not spare in the day of vengeance.

¹⁶A fool’s wrath is presently known: but a prudent man covereth shame.

¹⁷He that is soon angry dealeth foolishly: and a man of wicked devices is hated.

²⁹He that is slow to wrath is of great understanding: but he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

¹A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.

¹⁸A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.

¹⁴The wrath of a king is as messengers of death: but a wise man will pacify it.

²⁹A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.

³²He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

¹⁴The beginning of strife is as when one letteth out water: therefore leave off contention, before it be meddled with.

¹¹The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

¹²The king’s wrath is as the roaring of a lion; but his favour is as dew upon the grass.

¹⁹A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again.

²⁴Proud and haughty scorner is his name, who dealeth in proud wrath.

²⁴Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:

²⁵Lest thou learn his ways, and get a snare to thy soul.

²⁸He that hath no rule over his own spirit is like a city that is broken down, and without walls.

³A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool’s wrath is heavier than them both.

⁴Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?

⁸Scornful men bring a city into a snare: but wise men turn away wrath.

⁹If a wise man contendeth with a foolish man, whether he rage or laugh, there is no rest.

²²An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
