ليس الشديد بالصرعة، إنما الشديد الذي يملك نفسه عند الغضب
"The strong is not the one who overcomes others, but the strong is one who controls himself at the time of anger."
بِٱلصُّرَعَةِ — by the wrestler. Here 'bi-' is fused on as an emphasizing 'as/by' onto the predicate the 'is not' denies: the strong is not the one who pins others. This extra 'bi-' is a stylistic reinforcement that strengthens the negation rather than meaning 'with' literally.
