32 One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and one whose temper is controlled than one who captures a city.(A)
32 (A)Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.
28 Like a city breached, without walls, is one who lacks self-control.(A)
28 A man (A)without self-control is like (B)a city broken into and left without walls.
11 A fool gives full vent to anger, but the wise quietly holds it back.(A)
11 A fool gives full vent to his spirit, but a wise man quietly holds it back.
