1 Corinthians 6:5-7

⁵I say this to your shame. Is there really no one among you wise enough to arbitrate between his brothers?

⁶Instead, one brother goes to law against another, and this in front of unbelievers!

⁷The very fact that you have lawsuits among you means that you are thoroughly defeated already. Why not rather be wronged? Why not rather be cheated?

— 1 Corinthians 6:5-7
