Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.

Show proper respect to everyone, love the family of believers, fear God, honor the emperor.

Wealth attracts many friends, but even the closest friend of the poor person deserts them.

Many claim to have unfailing love, but a faithful person who can find?

Truthful lips endure forever, but a lying tongue lasts only a moment.

What a person desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar.

Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for each other, love one another deeply, from the heart.

Finally, all of you, be like-minded, be sympathetic, love one another, be compassionate and humble.

Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.

With this in mind, we constantly pray for you, that our God may make you worthy of his calling, and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness and your every deed prompted by faith.

Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.

Each of us should please his neighbor for his good, to build him up.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
