Proverbs 29:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

²² One given to anger stirs up strife,
    and the hothead causes much transgression.^(A)
23 A person’s pride will bring humiliation,
    but one who is lowly in spirit will obtain honor.^(B)
24 To be a partner of a thief is to hate one’s own life;
    one hears the victim’s curse but discloses nothing.^[a](C)
