1 Peter 3:10
| ← 1 Peter 3:9 | 1 Peter 3:10 (KJV) | 1 Peter 3:11 → |
|---|---|---|
Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.
|
For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:
|
Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.
