11 A person's wisdom yields patience; it is to one's glory to overlook an offense.
11 Good sense makes one slow to anger, and it is his glory to overlook an offense.
11 Smart people know how to hold their tongue; their grandeur is to forgive and forget.
11 The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger, And his glory is to overlook a transgression.
11 Sensible people control their temper; they earn respect by overlooking wrongs.
