Do unto OthersRomans 12:14-17 Bless he that persecutes you and curse not, Be at peace with everyone as you ought; Rejoice with any whose hearts are gladden, Weep with all of those which are sadden; Be of the same mind one toward another, Mind not of high things for some other; Rather condescend to men of a low estate, Someone humble that will really appreciate; Be not wise of your own vanity and pride, Pay back no one for evil rather rectified; Always be honest everything that you do, God will reward when you task is through. So often we intend on giving retribution, Taking someone to court for restitution; Something so underhanded that you abhor, Thinking of a hit man to settle the score; God does not want hate and discontent, Taking it out on each other for to vent; As well as showing pride and being vain, Your humbleness should help to refrain.
