Proverbs
16:17 The highway of the upright is to depart from evil: he that keepeth his way preserveth his soul.
16:29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.
16:32 He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
29:22 An angry man stirreth up strife, and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.

St. Matthew 5:22
But I say unto you, That whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment: and whosoever shall say to his brother, Raca, shall be in danger of the council: but whosoever shall say, Thou fool, shall be in danger of hell fire.

Romans 12:18-19
If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

Ephesians 4:26-27
Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath: Neither give place to the devil.
