For as the churning of milk produces butter and as punching the nose produces blood, so stirring up anger produces strife.

Remove the dross from the silver, and material for the silversmith will emerge;

locusts have no king, but they all go forward by ranks;

That is why I came out to meet you, to look for you, and I found you!

The one who conceals hatred utters lies, and the one who spreads slander is certainly a fool.

The evil person is ensnared by the transgression of his speech, but the righteous person escapes out of trouble.

Drive out the scorner and contention will leave; strife and insults will cease.

A fool lets fly with all his temper, but a wise person keeps it back.

Do not go out hastily to litigation, or what will you do afterward when your neighbor puts you to shame?
