9 Debate thy cause with thy neighbor [himself], And disclose not the secret of another; 10 Lest he that heareth it revile thee, And thine infamy turn not away.
To be hasty in beginning strife, will bring into difficulties. War must at length end, and might better be prevented. It is so in private quarrels; do all thou canst to settle the matter.
