"But let none of you suffer as a murderer, a thief, an evildoer, or as a busybody in other people's matters." (1 Pet. 4:15)

The phrase, "busybody in other people's matters" if from a single Greek word, "allotriepishopos" ("allotrious" - "belonging to another person," and "episkopos" - "bishop or overseer"); thus, "an overseer of that which belongs to another."

Let us not be endeavoring to oversee the affairs of others, but tend to our own business. Gal. 6:5 says, "But let each one examine his own work, and then he will have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another." James 3:13 says, "Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show by good conduct that his works are done in the meekness of wisdom."
