"Summing
up: Be agreeable, be sympathetic, be loving, be compassionate, be
humble. That goes for all of you, no exceptions. No retaliation. No
sharp-tongued sarcasm. Instead, bless—that’s your job, to bless. You’ll
be a blessing and also get a blessing.
Whoever wants to embrace life
and see the day fill up with good,
Here’s what you do:
Say nothing evil or hurtful;
Snub evil and cultivate good;
run after peace for all you’re worth.
God looks on all this with approval,
listening and responding well to what he’s asked;
But he turns his back
on those who do evil things."
