Judges 9:55

For lack of wood a fire goes out. Without gossip, a quarrel dies down.

So Joab blew the trumpet; and all the people stood still, and pursued Israel no more, and they fought no more.

Then the woman went to all the people in her wisdom. They cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri, and threw it out to Joab. He blew the trumpet, and they were dispersed from the city, every man to his tent. Then Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.

One of the sons of Joiada, the son of Eliashib the high priest, was son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite; therefore I chased him from me.

I will silence whoever secretly slanders his neighbor. I won’t tolerate one who is arrogant and conceited.

The proud and arrogant man—“Scoffer” is his name— he works in the arrogance of pride.

But those who are outside, God judges. “Put away the wicked man from among yourselves.”

then the priest shall command that they take out the stones in which is the plague, and cast them into an unclean place outside of the city.

Joab blew the trumpet, and the people returned from pursuing after Israel; for Joab held the people back.

he who doesn’t slander with his tongue, nor does evil to his friend, nor casts slurs against his fellow man;

a false witness who utters lies, and he who sows discord among brothers.

When wickedness comes, contempt also comes, and with shame comes disgrace.

A fool’s lips come into strife, and his mouth invites beatings.

Drive out the mocker, and strife will go out; yes, quarrels and insults will stop.

The schemes of folly are sin. The mocker is detested by men.

One who is greedy stirs up strife; but one who trusts in Yahweh will prosper.

If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the assembly. If he refuses to hear the assembly also, let him be to you as a Gentile or a tax collector.

They answered him, “You were altogether born in sins, and do you teach us?” Then they threw him out.

For if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound, who would prepare himself for war?
