Thematic Bible: Adjudication at law
Thematic Bible
Adjudication at law » To be avoided
The beginning of strife is like letting out water [as from a small break in a dam; first it trickles and then it gushes];
Therefore
It is an honor for a man to keep away from strife [by handling situations with thoughtful foresight],
But any fool will [start a] quarrel [without regard for the consequences].
Rush not forth soon to quarrel [before magistrates or elsewhere], lest you know not what to do in the end when your neighbor has put you to shame. Argue your cause with your neighbor himself; discover not and disclose not another's secret, Lest he who hears you revile you and bring shame upon you and your ill repute have no end.
