³² Better `is' the slow to anger than the mighty, And the ruler over his spirit than he who is taking a city.

²⁹ Whoso is slow to anger `is' of great understanding, And whoso is short in temper is exalting folly.

¹⁸ A man of fury stirreth up contention, And the slow to anger appeaseth strife.

¹¹ The wisdom of a man hath deferred his anger, And his glory `is' to pass over transgression.

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

²⁸ A city broken down without walls, `Is' a man without restraint over his spirit!

²¹ Be not overcome by the evil, but overcome, in the good, the evil.

¹ Become, then, followers of God, as children beloved,

⁸ Merciful and gracious `is' Jehovah, Slow to anger, and abundant in mercy.

²¹ He who is overcoming -- I will give to him to sit with me in my throne, as I also did overcome and did sit down with my Father in His throne.
