QUARREL

kwor'-el: Originally (1) "a complaint" (compare "querulous"), or (2) "a cause of complaint," and so (3) "a contention." (1) In the King James Version Mk 6:19 (the Revised Version (British and American) "set herself"; the colloquial "had it in for him" is an exact translation) and Col 3:13 (momphe, "complaint"; so the Revised Version (British and American)). (2) In 2 Ki 5:7 ('anah, "be opportune," the Revised Version margin "an occasion"). (3) In the King James Version Lev 26:25 (loose translation of naqam, "vengeance"; so the Revised Version (British and American)). Compare Sirach 31:29 the King James Version (the Revised Version (British and American) "conflict") and Prov 20:3 the Revised Version (British and American) (the King James Version, "meddling").
