Proverbs 22:24

22:24 Do not make friends with an angry person,

and do not associate with a wrathful person,


tn Heb “possessor of anger.” This expression is an idiom for “wrathful person” or “an angry person” (cf. NAB “a hotheaded man”; NLT “short-tempered people”). These are people characterized by anger, meaning the anger is not a rare occurrence with them.
