Conduct Toward Outsiders and Enemies

Romans 12:14-21

Blesse them which persecute you: blesse, I say, and curse not.

Reioyce with them that reioyce, and weepe with them that weepe.

Be of like affection one towardes another: be not hie minded: but make your selues equall to them of the lower sort: be not wise in your selues.

Recompence to no man euill for euill: procure things honest in the sight of all men.

If it bee possible, as much as in you is, haue peace with all men.

Dearely beloued, auenge not your selues, but giue place vnto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine: I will repay, saith the Lord.

Therefore, if thine enemie hunger, feede him: if he thirst, giue him drinke: for in so doing, thou shalt heape coales of fire on his head.

Bee not ouercome of euill, but ouercome euill with goodnesse.
