24 Do not make friends with a hot-tempered person, do not associate with one easily angered,
24 Make no friendship with an angry man; and with a furious man thou shalt not go:
24 Make no friendship with a man given to anger, nor go with a wrathful man,
24 Don't hang out with angry people; don't keep company with hotheads.
24 Make no friendship with an angry man, And with a furious man do not go,
24 Don't befriend angry people or associate with hot-tempered people,
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Proverbs 22:24
Commentary on Proverbs 22:24-25
(Read Proverbs 22:24-25)
Our corrupt hearts have so much tinder in them, that it is dangerous to have to do with those that throw about the sparks of their passion.
