Midrasz do Powtórzonego Prawa 25:1
כִּֽי־יִהְיֶ֥ה רִיב֙ בֵּ֣ין אֲנָשִׁ֔ים וְנִגְּשׁ֥וּ אֶל־הַמִּשְׁפָּ֖ט וּשְׁפָט֑וּם וְהִצְדִּ֙יקוּ֙ אֶת־הַצַּדִּ֔יק וְהִרְשִׁ֖יעוּ אֶת־הָרָשָֽׁע׃
Gdyby wynikł spór między ludźmi, a przyszliby do sądu, i rozsądzonoby ich, a uniewinniono sprawiedliwego, a skazano winnego, -
Sifrei Devarim
(Devarim 25:1) "If there be a quarrel among men": Peace cannot result from a quarrel. And thus is it written (Bereshith 13:17) "And there was a quarrel between the herdsmen of Abraham's cattle and those of Lot's cattle." What is it that caused Lot to separate from that tzaddik (Abraham)? A quarrel. Here, too, what is it that caused this one to receive stripes (in beth-din)? [see verse 2]) A quarrel.
