Proverbs 16:32

Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty,

and he who rules his spirit than he who takes a city.

Better a patient person than a warrior,

one with self-control than one who takes a city.

Patience is better than power,

and controlling one’s emotions, than capturing a city.

Better to be patient than powerful;

better to have self-control than to conquer a city.

He who is slow to anger is better than him who is mighty,

and he who controls his spirit than him who captures a city.

He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty;

And he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city.
