Anger slays even wise men, yet a submissive answer turns away wrath; but a grievous word stirs up anger.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God.

But brother goes to court against brother, and that before unbelievers!

Actually then, it is already a defeat for you that you have lawsuits against one another. Why not rather accept wrong? Why not rather accept being defrauded?

Do all things without grumbling and disputing,

Pursue peace and holiness with all [people], without which no one shall see the Lord:

But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and without hypocrisy.

Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those making peace.

And these are the generations of Terah: Terah begot Abram, Nahor, and Haran; and Haran begot Lot.

And Abram and Nahor took to themselves wives; the name of Abram's wife was Sarai, and the name of Nachor's wife [was] Milcah, daughter of Haran, and he was the father of Milcah, [and] the father of Iscah.

And Terah took Abram his son, and Lot his grandson, the son of Haran, and Sarai his daughter-in-law, the wife of Abram his son, and led them forth out of the land of the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan, and they came as far as Haran, and dwelt there.

And he sent away his brothers, and they went; and he said to them, Be not angry by the way.

And having gone out the second day, he saw two Hebrew men fighting; and he said to the injurer, Why do you strike your neighbor?

A Song of Degrees. See now! What is so good, or what so pleasant, as for brethren to dwell together?

And on the next day he appeared to them as they were fighting, and [tried to] reconcile them to peace, saying, 'Men, you are brothers; why do you wrong one another?'

Be warmly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor preferring one another;

with all humility and meekness, with longsuffering, bearing with one another in love,

being diligent to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.

Now concerning brotherly love you have no need [for me] to write to you, for you yourselves are taught by God to love one another.

Let brotherly love remain.

Since you have purified your souls by obedience to the truth through the Spirit in sincere love for the brothers, love one another fervently from a pure heart,

Honor all [people]. Love the brotherhood. Fear God. Honor the king.

Finally, all [of you] be like-minded, sympathetic, loving the brothers, compassionate, friendly,

And above all things have fervent love for one another, because "love will cover a multitude of sins."

and with godliness brotherly love, and with brotherly love, love.

He who says that he is in the light, and hates his brother, is in darkness until now.

But he who hates his brother is in darkness and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because the darkness has blinded his eyes.

We know that we have passed over from death to life, because we love the brothers. He who does not love his brother abides in death.

By this we have come to know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives in behalf of our brothers.

My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.

Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; and everyone that loves has been born of God and knows God.

If anyone claims, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen, how is it possible [for him] to love God whom he has not seen?

And this commandment we have from Him: that he who loves God should love his brother also.
