Proverbs 15:9-10, 18

The way [of life] of the wicked is hateful and exceedingly offensive to the LORD, But He loves one who pursues righteousness [personal integrity, moral courage and honorable character]. There is severe discipline for him who turns from the way [of righteousness]; And he who hates correction will die.

A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, But he who is slow to anger and patient calms disputes.
