SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:17
¶ El que presto se enoja, hará locura; y el hombre malicioso será aborrecido.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 14:17
Verse 17. He that is soon angry ] µypa rxq ketsar appayim, "short of nostrils:" because, when a man is angry, his nose is contracted, and drawn up towards his eyes. Dealeth foolishly ] He has no time for reflection; he is hurried on by his passions, speaks like a fool, and acts like a madman.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 17. [He that is] soon angry dealeth foolishly , etc.] A man that is quick and short, of a hasty spirit, and presently discovers anger and resentment in his face; he says and does many foolish things, which he afterwards is sorry for, and repents, and is ashamed of; and he is to be pitied and forgiven; and a man of wicked devices is hated ; one that hides his anger, covers his resentment, contrives schemes to revenge himself, and waits an opportunity to put them in execution, is justly hateful to God and men.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 17 - An angry man is to be pitied as well as blamed; but the revengeful i more hateful.
