Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses.
Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.
Whoever covers an offense seeks love, but he who repeats a matter separates close friends.
Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger quiets contention.
let him know that whoever brings back a sinner from his wandering will save his soul from death and will cover a multitude of sins.
What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you?
A greedy man stirs up strife, but the one who trusts in the Lord will be enriched.
A worthless man plots evil, and his speech is like a scorching fire.
A man of wrath stirs up strife, and one given to anger causes much transgression.
