Stay with him for a while, until your brother’s fury subsides—

…then I will walk in fury against you, and I, even I, will punish you sevenfold for your sins.

“Phinehas son of Eleazar, the son of Aaron the priest, has turned My wrath away from the Israelites; for he was zealous for My sake among them, so that I did not consume the Israelites in My zeal.

For I was afraid of the anger and wrath that the LORD had directed against you, enough to destroy you. But the LORD listened to me this time as well.

All its soil will be a burning waste of sulfur and salt, unsown and unproductive, with no plant growing on it, just like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboiim, which the LORD overthrew in His fierce anger.

The LORD uprooted them from their land in His anger, rage, and great wrath, and He cast them into another land, where they are today.’

They will be wasted from hunger and ravaged by pestilence and bitter plague; I will send the fangs of wild beasts against them, with the venom of vipers that slither in the dust.

Their wine is the venom of serpents, the deadly poison of cobras.

…if the king’s anger flares, he may ask you, ‘Why did you get so close to the city to fight? Did you not realize they would shoot from atop the wall?

Are not the Abanah and Pharpar, the rivers of Damascus, better than all the waters of Israel? Could I not have washed in them and been cleansed?” So he turned and went away in a rage.

“Go and inquire of the LORD for me, for the people, and for all Judah concerning the words in this book that has been found. For great is the wrath of the LORD that burns against us because our fathers have not obeyed the words of this book by doing all that is written about us.”

…because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be kindled against this place and will not be quenched.’

When the LORD saw that they had humbled themselves, the word of the LORD came to Shemaiah, saying, “They have humbled themselves; I will not destroy them, but will soon grant them deliverance. My wrath will not be poured out on Jerusalem through Shishak.

But a prophet of the LORD named Oded was there, and he went out to meet the army that returned to Samaria. “Look,” he said to them, “because of His wrath against Judah, the LORD, the God of your fathers, has delivered them into your hand. But you have slaughtered them in a rage that reaches up to heaven.

“Go and inquire of the LORD for me and for those remaining in Israel and Judah concerning the words in the book that has been found. For great is the wrath of the LORD that has been poured out on us because our fathers have not kept the word of the LORD by doing all that is written in this book.”

…because they have forsaken Me and burned incense to other gods, that they might provoke Me to anger with all the works of their hands. My wrath will be poured out upon this place and will not be quenched.’

But they mocked the messengers of God, despising His words and scoffing at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD against His people was stirred up beyond remedy.

Queen Vashti, however, refused to come at the king’s command brought by his eunuchs. And the king became furious, and his anger burned within him.

Some time later, when the anger of King Xerxes had subsided, he remembered Vashti and what she had done, and what had been decreed against her.

When Haman saw that Mordecai would not bow down or pay him homage, he was filled with rage.

That day Haman went out full of joy and glad of heart. At the king’s gate, however, he saw Mordecai, who did not rise or tremble in fear at his presence. And Haman was filled with rage toward Mordecai.

In his fury, the king arose from drinking his wine and went to the palace garden, while Haman stayed behind to beg Queen Esther for his life, for he realized that the king was planning a terrible fate for him.

So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai. Then the fury of the king subsided.

For the arrows of the Almighty have pierced me; my spirit drinks in their poison; the terrors of God are arrayed against me.

…then you should fear the sword yourselves, because wrath brings punishment by the sword, so that you may know there is a judgment.”

Let his eyes see his own destruction; let him drink for himself the wrath of the Almighty.

Be careful that no one lures you with riches; do not let a large bribe lead you astray.

For the choirmaster. With stringed instruments, according to Sheminith. A Psalm of David. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.

Refrain from anger and abandon wrath; do not fret—it can only bring harm.

A Psalm of David, for remembrance. O LORD, do not rebuke me in Your anger or discipline me in Your wrath.

Their venom is like the venom of a snake, like a cobra that shuts its ears,

Consume them in wrath; consume them till they are no more, so it may be known to the ends of the earth that God rules over Jacob. Selah

Even the wrath of man shall praise You; with the survivors of wrath You will clothe Yourself.

And yet He was compassionate; He forgave their iniquity and did not destroy them. He often restrained His anger and did not unleash His full wrath.

Pour out Your wrath on the nations that do not acknowledge You, on the kingdoms that refuse to call on Your name,

Your wrath weighs heavily upon me; all Your waves have submerged me. Selah

How long, O LORD? Will You hide Yourself forever? Will Your wrath keep burning like fire?

For we are consumed by Your anger and terrified by Your wrath.

So He said He would destroy them—had not Moses His chosen one stood before Him in the breach to divert His wrath from destroying them.

They sharpen their tongues like snakes; the venom of vipers is on their lips. Selah

For jealousy enrages a husband, and he will show no mercy in the day of vengeance.

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.

A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger calms dispute.

The wrath of a king is a messenger of death, but a wise man will pacify it.

A man of great anger must pay the penalty; if you rescue him, you will have to do so again.

A gift in secret soothes anger, and a covert bribe pacifies great wrath.

Do not make friends with an angry man, and do not associate with a hot-tempered man,

Wrath is cruel and anger is like a flood, but who can withstand jealousy?
