1 Corinthians 6:5

³ Do you not know that we will judge angels? How much more the things of this life!

⁴ So if you need to settle everyday matters, do you appoint as judges those of no standing in the church?

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

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

⁷ The 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?
