22:24 Do not make friends with an angry person, 1
and do not associate with a wrathful person,
22:25 lest you learn 2 his ways
and entangle yourself in a snare. 3
25:8 Do not go out hastily to litigation, 4
or 5 what will you do afterward
when your neighbor puts you to shame?
25:28 Like a city that is broken down and without a wall,
so is a person who cannot control his temper. 6
7:9 Do not let yourself be quickly provoked, 7
for anger resides in the lap 8 of fools.
3:19 Then Nebuchadnezzar was filled with rage, and his disposition changed 9 toward Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. He gave orders 10 to heat the furnace seven times hotter than it was normally heated. 3:20 He ordered strong 11 soldiers in his army to tie up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego and to throw them into the furnace of blazing fire. 3:21 So those men were tied up while still wearing their cloaks, trousers, turbans, and other clothes, 12 and were thrown into the furnace 13 of blazing fire. 3:22 But since the king’s command was so urgent, and the furnace was so excessively hot, the men who escorted 14 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were killed 15 by the leaping flames. 16 3:23 But those three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell into the furnace 17 of blazing fire while still securely bound. 18
3:24 Then King Nebuchadnezzar was startled and quickly got up. He said to his ministers, “Wasn’t it three men that we tied up and threw 19 into 20 the fire?” They replied to the king, “For sure, O king.” 3:25 He answered, “But I see four men, untied and walking around in the midst of the fire! No harm has come to them! And the appearance of the fourth is like that of a god!” 21
2:16 When Herod 22 saw that he had been tricked by the wise men, he became enraged. He sent men 23 to kill all the children in Bethlehem 24 and throughout the surrounding region from the age of two and under, according to the time he had learned from the wise men.
