'Otherwise' in the Bible

For example, when you go with your opponent in front of a ruler, do your best to settle with him on the way there. Otherwise, you will be dragged in front of the judge, and the judge will hand you over to an officer, and the officer will throw you into prison.

Then he told the man who had invited him, "When you give a luncheon or a dinner, stop inviting only your friends, brothers, relatives, or rich neighbors. Otherwise, they may invite you in return and you would be repaid.

Otherwise, if he lays a foundation and can't finish the building, everyone who watches will begin to ridicule him

yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will grant her justice. Otherwise, she will keep coming and wear me out.'"
