Kural Number: 0308 (Vizhiyappan's Translation)

{பால்: 1 - அறத்துப்பால்; இயல்: 03 - துறவறவியல்; அதிகாரம்: 031 - வெகுளாமை; குறள் எண்: 0308}

{Division: 1 - Ethics ; Section: 03 - Abdication Ethics; Chapter: 031 - Not Getting Angry; Kural Number: 0308}

இணர்எரி தோய்வன்ன இன்னா செயினும்
புணரின் வெகுளாமை நன்று

Even “dropping in fire” like evil is done,
better not getting angry

Vizhiyappan's Commentary: It is better to not getting angry with someone, who has done an evil that is equivalent to dropping us in a huge fire.

(Likewise...)

It is better to socialize without enmity with someone, who has given a mental-pain that is on par to stab with a "poison-dipped" sharp spear.
