Acts 23:7

As he said this, there occurred a dissension between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.

Confuse, O Lord, divide their tongues,
For I have seen violence and strife in the city.

“Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.

Some of the people therefore, when they heard these words, were saying, “This certainly is the Prophet.”

But the people of the city were divided; and some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.
