King James Bible
The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

American Standard Version
The discretion of a man maketh him slow to anger; And it is his glory to pass over a transgression.

Young's Literal Translation
The wisdom of a man hath deferred his anger, And his glory is to pass over transgression.

Proverbs 19:11 Additional Translations
Clarke's Commentary on the Bible

It is his glory to pass over a transgression - "No," says what is termed a man of honor; "he must meet me as a gentleman; I must have his blood, let God say what he will." O poor, dastardly coward! thou canst not bear the reproach of poor, flimsy, paltry fellows who ridicule thee, because thou hast refused to commit murder. Such laws should be put down by law; and the man that gives a challenge should be hanged, because he intends to commit murder.
