Let not a man who speaks evil be established in the earth; evil shall hunt the violent man to overthrow him.

Let all bitterness, wrath, anger, clamor, and evil speaking be put away from you, with all wickedness.

Likewise women must be reverent, not slanderers, temperate, faithful in all things.

without natural affection, unyielding, slanderers, without self-control, savage, despisers of good,

the older women likewise, that they be reverent in behavior, not slanderers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things;

Therefore, laying aside all malice, all deceit, hypocrisy, envy, and all evil speaking,

Judge not, that you be not judged.

For with whatever judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with whatever gauge you measure, it will be measured back to you.

Therefore the Law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good.

Has then that which is good become death to me? Let it not be! But sin, that it might appear to be sin, was producing death in me through what is good, so that sin through the commandment might become exceedingly sinful.

But be doers of the Word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.

For if anyone is a hearer of the Word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror;

But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in his deeds.
