Proverbs 29:24

22 An angry man stirs up dissension, and a hot-tempered man abounds in transgression.

23 A man’s pride will bring him low, but a humble spirit will obtain honor.

A partner to a thief hates his own soul; he receives the oath, but does not testify.

25 The fear of man is a snare, but whoever trusts in the LORD is set securely on high.

26 Many seek the ruler’s favor, but a man receives justice from the LORD.
