Verses on Anger

Psalm 37:8

Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret-it leads only to evil.

Proverbs 14:29
Whoever is patient has great understanding, but one who is quick-tempered displays folly.
Proverbs 16:32
Better a patient man than a warrior, a man who controls his temper than one who takes a city.
Proverbs 19:11
A person’s wisdom yields patience; it is to one’s glory to overlook an offense.
Ecclesiastes 7:9
Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
Roman 8:6
The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace.
Ephesians 4:31-32
Get rid of all bitterness, rage, and anger brawling and slander, along with every form of malice. 32 Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.
Philippians 2:3
Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit, but in humility consider others better than yourselves.
James 1:19-20
My dear brothers and sister, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to become angry, 20 because human anger does not produce the righteousness that God desires.
