If then ye have any causes relating to this life, set them to judge who are of no repute in the church. I speak to your shame. Is it so, that there is not a wise man among you, not one that will be able to judge between his brethren? Nay, brother goeth to law with brother, and that before unbelievers. Now therefore it is altogether an evil among you, that ye have suits against each other. Why do ye not rather submit to wrong? Why do ye not rather allow yourselves to be defrauded? But ye yourselves wrong, and defraud, and that too your brethren.
