Bible verses about "dispute" | RKJNT

Romans 12:19

19 Dearly beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place for the wrath of God: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, says the Lord.

1 Corinthians 6:1-6

1 Does any of you dare, if you have a dispute against another, to go to law before the ungodly, instead of before the saints? 2 Do you not know that the saints shall judge the world? and if the world shall be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? 3 Do you not know that we shall judge angels? how much more, things that pertain to this life? 4 If then you have such disputes, set them before those who are least esteemed in the church. 5 I speak this to your shame. Can it be that there is not a wise man among you who shall be able to judge between his brethren? 6 But brother goes to law against brother, and that before the unbelievers.

Matthew 18:15-17

15 If your brother shall sin against you, go and tell him his fault between you and him alone: if he shall hear you, you have gained your brother. 16 But if he will not hear you, then take with you one or two more, that by the testimony of two or three witnesses every word may be established. 17 And if he refuses to hear them, tell it to the church: but if he even refuses to hear the church, let him be to you as a Gentile and a tax gatherer.
