Clarke's Proverbs 10:12 Bible Commentary

Hatred stirreth up strifes - It seeks for occasions to provoke enmity. It delights in broils. On the contrary, love conciliates; removes aggravations; puts the best construction on every thing; and pours water, not oil, upon the flame.

Love covereth all sins - i. e., First hides, does not expose, and then forgives and forgets all sins.
