1 Peter 3:9-12
[9]Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.
[10]For the Scriptures say,
“If you want to enjoy life
and see many happy days,
keep your tongue from speaking evil
and your lips from telling lies.
[11]Turn away from evil and do good.
Search for peace, and work to maintain it.
[12]The eyes of the lord watch over those who do right,
and his ears are open to their prayers.
But the lord turns his face
against those who do evil.”
