Proverbs 16:32

³²One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.

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

³²He who is slow to anger is better than a warrior, and he who controls his temper is greater than one who captures a city.

³²Better to be slow to anger than to be powerful, better to have self-control than to conquer a town.

¹⁹So, then, my beloved brothers, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger;

²⁸Like a city that is broken down and without walls is a man whose spirit is without restraint.

¹⁸A wrathful man stirs up contention, but one who is slow to anger appeases strife.

²⁹He who is slow to anger has great understanding, but he who has a quick temper displays folly.

¹¹The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.

²¹Don’t be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

⁸The LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.

¹Be therefore imitators of God, as beloved children.

²¹He who overcomes, I will give to him to sit down with me on my throne, as I also overcame and sat down with my Father on his throne.

¹⁹It is better to be of a lowly spirit with the poor, than to divide the plunder with the proud.
