¹⁹ Ye know `this', my beloved brethren. But let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:

¹² Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? There is more hope of a fool than of him.

²⁹ He that is slow to anger is of great understanding; But he that is hasty of spirit exalteth folly.

⁵ The thoughts of the diligent `tend' only to plenteousness; But every one that is hasty `hasteth' only to want.

¹¹ A fool uttereth all his anger; But a wise man keepeth it back and stilleth it.
