5 Let your moderation be known to all men. The Lord is at hand.

1 A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger.

24 Pleasant words are as a honey-comb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

5 Walk in wisdom towards them that are without, redeeming the time.6 Let your speech be always with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

12 Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, long-suffering;

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

10 As we have therefore opportunity, let us do good to all men, especially to them who are of the household of faith.

1 Let brotherly love continue.2 Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for by this some have entertained angels unawares.

13 Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling-block, or an occasion to fall in his brother's way.

17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thy heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbor, and not suffer sin upon him.18 Thou shalt not avenge, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people, but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself; I am the LORD.

9 Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Execute true judgment, and show mercy and compassions every man to his brother:10 And oppress not the widow, nor the fatherless, the stranger, nor the poor; and let none of you imagine evil against his brother in your heart.

20 Verily, verily, I say to you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
