Luke 12:57-59
57And why do you not judge for yourselves what is right?58Thus, when you go with your accuser before a magistrate, on the way make an effort to settle the case, or you may be dragged before the judge, and the judge hand you over to the officer, and the officer throw you in prison.59I tell you, you will never get out until you have paid the very last penny."
