Romans 12:9-21 (New International Version)
9Love must be sincere. Hate
what is evil; cling to what is good.10Be devoted to one
another in brotherly love. Honor one another above
yourselves.11Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your
spiritual fervor, serving the Lord.12Be joyful in
hope, patient in affliction, faithful in
prayer.13Share with God's people who are in need. Practice hospitality.14Bless those who
persecute you; bless and do not curse.15Rejoice with
those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn.16Live in
harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but be willing
to associate with people of low position. Do not be
conceited.17Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Be
careful to do what is right in the eyes of everybody.18If
it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.19Do not take revenge, my friends, but
leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I
will repay," says the Lord.20On
the contrary: "If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give
him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his
head."21Do not be overcome by evil,
but overcome evil with good.
