Ben Sira 1:22

22 A furious man cannot be justified, for the sway of his fury shall be his destruction.

Ben Sira 1:22 In-Context

20 The root of wisdom is to fear the Lord, and the branches thereof are long life.

21 The fear of the Lord driveth away sins; and where it is present, it turneth away wrath.

22 A furious man cannot be justified, for the sway of his fury shall be his destruction.

23 A patient man will bear for a time, and afterward joy shall spring up unto him.

24 He will hide his words for a time, and the lips of many shall declare his wisdom.
