12 ⁹ Let love be without dissimulation. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good. 12 ¹⁰ Be kindly affectioned one to another with brotherly love; in honour preferring one another; 12 ¹¹ Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord; 12 ¹² Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer; 12 ¹³ Distributing to the necessity of saints; given to hospitality.

12 ¹⁴ Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not. 12 ¹⁵ Rejoice with them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. 12 ¹⁶ Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. 12 ^{17 [ Pr.3.4. ]} Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. 12 ¹⁸ If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. 12 ^{19 [ Dt.32.35. ]} Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. 12 ^{20 [ Pr.25.21-22. ]} Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. 12 ²¹ Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
