New Catholic Bible
Chapter 6
Avoid Lawsuits against Each Other.[a] 1 If any of you has a dispute with another, how can you seek judgment before those who are unrighteous[b] instead of before the saints? 2 Do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, how can you consider yourselves as incompetent to deal with smaller cases?

Lawsuits Among Believers
6 If any of you has a dispute with another, do you dare to take it before the ungodly for judgment instead of before the Lord’s people?(A) 2 Or do you not know that the Lord’s people will judge the world?(B) And if you are to judge the world, are you not competent to judge trivial cases?
