'Contention' in the Bible
By pride there only cometh contention; but with the well-advised is wisdom.
A furious man stirreth up contention; but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
A false man soweth contention; and a talebearer separateth very friends.
The beginning of contention is as when one letteth out water; therefore leave off strife before it become vehement.
A fool's lips enter into contention, and his mouth calleth for stripes.
Cast out the scorner, and contention will depart, and strife and ignominy shall cease.
Where no wood is, the fire goeth out; and where there is no talebearer, the contention ceaseth.
He that is puffed up in soul exciteth contention; but he that relieth upon Jehovah shall be made fat.
An angry man exciteth contention; and a furious man aboundeth in transgression.
