Do not fret because of evildoers,
Be not envious toward wrongdoers.
A tranquil heart is life to the body,
But passion is rottenness to the bones.
A man of great anger will bear the penalty,
For if you rescue him, you will only have to do it again.
Do not be eager in your heart to be angry,
For anger resides in the bosom of fools.

being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips,
For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there is disorder and every evil thing.
Therefore, putting aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander,
Now the deeds of the flesh are evident, which are: immorality, impurity, sensuality,
idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, disputes, dissensions, factions,
Be angry, and yet do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger,
Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.
But now you also, put them all aside: anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive speech from your mouth.
