Let not the sun go down on your wrath

Let not the sun go down on your wrath

Meaning:

Do not hold on to your anger for more than one day.

This expression derives from the Bible, Ephesians 4:26. The earliest version printed in English is in Coverdale's Bible, 1535:
Be angrie, but synne not. Let not ye Sonne go downe vpo youre wrath.
