ANGER.
O Lord, rebuke me not in thine anger, neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure.—Psalm vi. 1.
A wrathful man stirreth up strife; but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.—Proverbs, xv. 18.
Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry; for anger resteth in the bosom of fools.—Ecclesiastes, vii. 9.
Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath.—Ephesians, iv. 26.
The anger of the Lord? Oh, dreadful thought!
How can a creature frail as man endure
The tempest of His wrath? Ah, whither flee
To ’scape the punishment he well deserves?
Flee to the cross! the great atonement there
