Proverbs 29:8-10

Wycliffe Bible

⁸ Men full of pestilence destroy a city; but wise men turn away strong vengeance.

⁹ If a wise man striveth with a fool, whether he be wroth, or laugh, he shall not find rest.

¹⁰ Men-quellers hate a simple man; but just men seek his soul. (Murderers hate honest people; but the righteous seek them out.)
