7 In the same way you husbands must live with your wives with the proper understanding that they are weaker than you. Treat them with respect, because they also will receive, together with you, God's gift of life. Do this so that nothing will interfere with your prayers.
8 To conclude: you must all have the same attitude and the same feelings; love one another as brothers and sisters, and be kind and humble with one another.
9 Do not pay back evil with evil or cursing with cursing; instead, pay back with a blessing, because a blessing is what God promised to give you when he called you.
10 As the scripture says:“Whoever wants to enjoy lifeand wishes to see good times,must keep from speaking eviland stop telling lies.
11 They must turn away from evil and do good;they must strive for peace with all their heart.
12 For the Lord watches over the righteousand listens to their prayers;but he opposes those who do evil.”
13 Who will harm you if you are eager to do what is good?
