Compare all
24 and that you aput on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.  

Do Not Grieve the Spirit

25 Therefore, putting away lying, a“Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor,” for bwe are members of one another.  
26 a“Be angry, and do not sin”: do not let the sun go down on your wrath,  
27 anor give1 place to the devil.  
28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather alet him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something bto give him who has need.  
29 aLet no corrupt word proceed out of your mouth, but bwhat is good for necessary edification, cthat it may impart grace to the hearers.

Ephesians 4:26

Be ye angry and sin not (orgizesqe kai mh amartanete). Permissive imperative, not a command to be angry. Prohibition against sinning as the peril in anger. Quotation from Psalms 4:4.

Let not the sun go down upon your wrath (o hliov mh epiduetw epi parorgismw). Danger in settled mood of anger. Parorgismov (provocation), from parorgizw, to exasperate to anger, occurs only in LXX and here in N.T.
