Bible Verses about Anger
- “In your anger do not sin”: Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, and do not give the devil a foothold.
- Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
- Do not hate a fellow Israelite in your heart. Rebuke your neighbor frankly so you will not share in their guilt. Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord.
- Hatred stirs up conflict,
but love covers over all wrongs. - A gentle answer turns away wrath,
but a harsh word stirs up anger. - My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.
- Whoever is patient has great understanding,
but one who is quick-tempered displays folly. - He went on: “What comes out of a person is what defiles them. For it is from within, out of a person’s heart, that evil thoughts come—sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, malice, deceit, lewdness, envy, slander, arrogance and folly. All these evils come from inside and defile a person.”
- Fools give full vent to their rage,
but the wise bring calm in the end. - Fools show their annoyance at once,
but the prudent overlook an insult. - Where there is strife, there is pride,
but wisdom is found in those who take advice. - It is to one’s honor to avoid strife,
but every fool is quick to quarrel. - See to it, brothers and sisters, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.
- ‘Return, faithless Israel,’ declares the Lord,
‘I will frown on you no longer,
for I am faithful,’ declares the Lord,
‘I will not be angry forever.’ - The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.
- Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord.
Come back to your senses as you ought, and stop sinning; for there are some who are ignorant of God—I say this to your shame. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.Next verse!With image
