²⁶ Be angry without doing wrong; let not the sun go down on your wrath;

²⁷ And do not give way to the Evil One.

²⁸ Let him who was a thief be so no longer, but let him do good work with his hands, so that he may have something to give to him who is in need.

¹⁰ The only effect of pride is fighting; but wisdom is with the quiet in spirit.

¹² My brothers, take care that there is not by chance in any one of you an evil heart without belief, turning away from the living God:

¹⁹ You have knowledge of this, dear brothers. But let every man be quick in hearing, slow in words, slow to get angry;

⁴ Love is never tired of waiting; love is kind; love has no envy; love has no high opinion of itself, love has no pride;

⁵ Love's ways are ever fair, it takes no thought for itself; it is not quickly made angry, it takes no account of evil;

⁶ It takes no pleasure in wrongdoing, but has joy in what is true;

²⁹ He who is slow to be angry has great good sense; but he whose spirit is over-quick gives support to what is foolish.

¹¹ A foolish man lets out all his wrath, but a wise man keeps it back quietly.

¹⁶ A foolish man lets his trouble be openly seen, but a sharp man keeps shame secret.

¹² Hate is a cause of violent acts, but all errors are covered up by love.
