'Matter' in the Bible
Do not be rash with your mouth or hasty in your heart to bring up a matter before God, for God is in heaven and you are on earth! Therefore, let your words be few.
If you see the extortion of the poor, or the perversion of justice and fairness in the government, do not be astonished by the matter. For the high official is watched by a higher official, and there are higher ones over them!
The end of a matter is better than its beginning; likewise, patience is better than pride.
Do not rush out of the king's presence in haste -- do not delay when the matter is unpleasant, for he can do whatever he pleases.
For there is a proper time and procedure for every matter, for the oppression of the king is severe upon his victim.
