Proverbs 25:8-10
New Century Version
8 do not quickly take someone to court.
What will you do later
when your neighbor proves you wrong?
9 If you have an argument with your neighbor,
don’t tell other people what was said.
10 Whoever hears it might shame you,
and you might not ever be respected again.
Matthew 5:25
