8

Last of all, see that you are all in agreement feeling for one another, loving one another like brothers, full of pity, without pride:

9

Not giving back evil for evil, or curse for curse, but in place of cursing, blessing because this is the purpose of God for you that you may have a heritage of blessing.

10

For it is said, Let the man who has a love of life, desiring to see good days, keep his tongue from evil and his lips from words of deceit:

11

And let him be turned from evil and do good searching for peace and going after it with all his heart.

12

For the eyes of the Lord are on the upright, and his ears are open to their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.
