[Like] one who takesa dogby the earsIs he who passesby [and] meddleswith strifenot belonging to him.
A rebelliousmanseeksonlyevil,So a cruelmessengerwill be sentagainst him.
A fool'slipsbringstrife,And his mouthcallsfor blows.
Keepingawayfrom strifeis an honorfor a man,But anyfoolwill quarrel.
Like a madmanwho throwsFirebrands,arrowsand death,
Do not contendwith a manwithoutcause,Ifhe has doneyou noharm.
But He saidto him, "Man,whoappointedMe a judgeorarbitratoroveryou?"
