"In your anger do not sin" : Do not let the sun go down while you are still angry, do not give the devil a foothold. Ephesians 4:26-27 (NIV)
My reflection of the verse
The verse says that we should not allow ourselves to be angry at someone for a long time, otherwise, we will sin. If we have a misunderstanding with someone it should be settled before the sun comes down. I think the rationale behind this is that it would be difficult to patch up when we don't talk things over immediately and God's adversary will use it against us. Therefore, we should not be carried away with our anger and try to make peace with the people we had problems with before the end of the day.
