Wrath is cruel and anger is an overwhelming flood, But who is able to endure and stand before [the sin of] jealousy? Better is an open reprimand [of loving correction] Than love that is hidden. [Prov 28:23; Gal 2:14] Faithful are the wounds of a friend [who corrects out of love and concern], But the kisses of an enemy are deceitful [because they serve his hidden agenda].
