¹⁷ He who is quick to become angry will commit folly,
    and a crafty man is hated.

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

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

⁸ Don’t be hasty in bringing charges to court.
    What will you do in the end when your neighbor shames you?
