Say now

A little later the bystanders came up and said to Peter, “Surely you too are one of them; for even the way you talk gives you away.”

But again he denied it. And after a little while the bystanders were again saying to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean too.”

There fell

The beginning of strife is like letting out water,
So abandon the quarrel before it breaks out.

A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city,
And contentions are like the bars of a citadel.

Words from the mouth of a wise man are gracious, while the lips of a fool consume him;

And knowing their thoughts Jesus said to them, “Any kingdom divided against itself is laid waste; and any city or house divided against itself will not stand.

But if you bite and devour one another, take care that you are not consumed by one another.

General references

Do not answer a fool according to his folly,

Or you will also be like him.

If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand.
