Old Testament

New Testament

Romans 12:14-21 Modern English Version (MEV)

14. Bless those who persecute you; bless, and do not curse.

15. Rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep.

16. Be of the same mind toward one another. Do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly. Do not pretend to be wiser than you are.

17. Repay no one evil for evil. Commend what is honest in the sight of all men.

18. If it is possible, as much as it depends on you, live peaceably with all men.

19. Beloved, do not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to God’s wrath, for it is written: “Vengeance is Mine. I will repay,” says the Lord.

20. Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him;if he is thirsty, give him a drink;for in doing so you will heap coals of fire on his head.”

21. Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
