Proverbs 17:1-5 ESV

17 Better is a dry morsel with quiet
    than a house full of feasting^[a] with strife.
² A servant who deals wisely will rule over a son who acts shamefully
    and will share the inheritance as one of the brothers.
³ The crucible is for silver, and the furnace is for gold,
    and the Lord tests hearts.
⁴ An evildoer listens to wicked lips,
    and a liar gives ear to a mischievous tongue.
⁵ Whoever mocks the poor insults his Maker;
    he who is glad at calamity will not go unpunished.

Proverbs 17:14

¹⁴ The beginning of strife (heated arguments) is as when one letteth out water (breach the damn): therefore leave off (to disperse, reject, cast off) contention (little arguments) before it be meddled with (gatherers volume).
