Swift To Hear, Slow To Speak, And Slow To Wrath

We get this quote from the Bible.

We must be “Swift To Hear, Slow To Speak, And Slow To Wrath”

But what does this saying from the Bible mean? It means that we must

  • Be concerned, care and pay attention…or “swift to hear”
  • Be reserved, calm and composed…or “slow to speak”
  • Be understanding, patient, and not impulsive…or “slow to wrath”
