9  Let love be unfeigned; abhorring evil; cleaving to good: 10  as to brotherly love, kindly affectioned towards one another: as to honour, each taking the lead in paying it to the other: 11  as to diligent zealousness, not slothful; in spirit fervent; serving the Lord. 12  As regards hope, rejoicing: as regards tribulation, enduring: as regards prayer, persevering: 13  distributing to the necessities of the saints; given to hospitality. 14  Bless them that persecute you; bless, and curse not. 15  Rejoice with those that rejoice, weep with those that weep. 16  Have the same respect one for another, not minding high things, but going along with the lowly: be not wise in your own eyes: 17  recompensing to no one evil for evil: providing things honest before all men: 18  if possible, as far as depends on you, living in peace with all men; 19  not avenging yourselves, beloved, but give place to wrath; for it is written, Vengeance belongs to me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. 20  If therefore thine enemy should hunger, feed him; if he should thirst, give him drink; for, so doing, thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.
