Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all transgressions.

A wrathful man stirs up strife, but one who is slow to anger calms the dispute.

He who loves transgression loves strife; he who exalts his gate seeks destruction.

As coals to burning coals, and wood to fire, so is a contentious man to kindle strife.

Surely the churning of milk yields butter, and the squeezing of the nose brings forth blood; so the wringing of wrath brings forth strife.

He who loves transgression loves strife; he who exalts his gate seeks destruction.

Make no friendship with an angry man; and do not go with a man of fury,

For where envy and contention exist, there is confusion and every evil deed.
