My dear brothers and sisters, always be willing to listen and slow 
to speak. Do not become angry easily, because anger will not help 
you live the right kind of life God wants.
James 1:19-20



When you are angry, do not sin, and be sure to stop being angry before 
the end of the day.
Ephesians 4:26



A gentle answer will calm a person's anger, but an unkind answer will 
cause more anger.
Proverbs 15:1



Yes, if you forgive others for their sins, you Father in heaven will 
also forgive you for your sins.
Matthew 6:14



Patient people have great understanding, but people with quick tempers 
show their foolishness.
Proverbs 14:29



Patience is better than strength. Controlling your temper is better 
than capturing a city.
Proverbs 16:32



Don't become angry quickly, because getting angry is foolish.
Ecclesiastes 7:9

My friends, do not try to punish others when they wrong you, but wait 
for God to punish them with his anger. It is written: "I will punish 
those who do wrong, I will repay them," says the Lord.
Romans 12:19
 

 
If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink. 
Doing this will be like pouring burning coals on his head, and the LORD 
will reward you.
Proverbs 25:21-22



We know that God said, "I will punish those who do wrong; I will repay 
them." And he also said, "The Lord will judge his people."
Hebrews 10:30



Do not be bitter or angry or mad. Never shout angrily or say things to 
hurt others. Never do anything evil. Be kind and loving to each other, 
and forgive each other just as God forgave you in Christ.
Ephesians 4:31-32



But I tell you, if you are angry with a brother or sister, you will be 
judged. If you say bad things to a brother or sister, you will be judged 
by the council. And if you call someone a fool, you will be in danger of 
the fire of hell. So when you offer your gift to God at the altar, and 
you remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave 
your gift there at the altar. Go and make peace with that person, and 
then come and offer your gift. 
Matthew 5:22-24



Wise people are careful and stay out of trouble, but fools are careless 
and quick to act. Someone with a quick temper does foolish things, but 
someone with understanding remains calm.
Proverbs 14:16-17



But now also put these things out of your life: anger, bad temper, doing 
or saying things to hurt others, and using evil words when you talk.
Colossians 3:8



Don't get angry. Don't be upset; it only leads to trouble.
Psalm 37:8
