Better to be patient than powerful;
better to have self-control than to conquer a city.

Better a patient person than a warrior,
one with self-control than one who takes a city.

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.

Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
And he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
and one whose temper is controlled than one who captures a city.

One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty;
one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.

One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty,
And one who rules his spirit, than one who captures a city.

It is better to be a patient man rather than a warrior,
one who controls his temper rather than one who captures a city.
