Verse 17

"He that is soon angry will deal foolishly; And a man of wicked devices is hated."

As this stands, "The proverb compares two bad dispositions by their outcome and by their impression upon others";[18] but by a slight emendation (which some current translators accept), we get, "A person who becomes angry easily does foolish things, but a wise person is patient."[19] Either way the proverb is true.
