Proverbs 27:3

3 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.

Proverbs 27:3 In-Context

1 Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth .

2 Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips.

3 A stone is heavy, and the sand weighty; but a fool's wrath is heavier than them both.

4 Wrath is cruel, and anger is outrageous; but who is able to stand before envy?

5 Open rebuke is better than secret love.
