She has prepared her meat, she has mixed her wine; she also has arranged her table.

If the righteous are recompensed on earth, how much more the wicked sinner!

A gentle response turns away anger, but a harsh word stirs up wrath.

A gift given in secret subdues anger, and a bribe given secretly subdues strong wrath.

The wicked person’s sacrifice is an abomination; how much more when he brings it with evil intent!

So that your confidence may be in the Lord, I am making them known to you today – even you.

Indeed, she lies in wait like a robber, and increases the unfaithful among men.

Wrath is cruel and anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?

Scornful people inflame a city, but those who are wise turn away wrath.

An angry person stirs up dissension, and a wrathful person is abounding in transgression.

Death and Destruction are before the Lord – how much more the hearts of humans!

Excessive speech is not becoming for a fool; how much less are lies for a ruler!

Luxury is not appropriate for a fool; how much less for a servant to rule over princes!

Do not make friends with an angry person, and do not associate with a wrathful person,

All the relatives of a poor person hate him; how much more do his friends avoid him – he pursues them with words, but they do not respond.

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