1PET 3:8–3:12 ©

Agree with each other, love each other, be humble, and bless those who do evil things to you instead of retaliating.

Agree with each other, love each other, be humble, and bless those who do evil things to you instead of retaliating.

1 Peter 3:8-12

8To end this part of my letter, I say to all of you, agree with each other in what you think. Be sympathetic toward each other. Love each other as members of the same family should. Act compassionately toward each other. Be humble. 9When people do evil things to you or insult you, do not retaliate/repay them by► doing evil things to them or insulting them. Instead, ask God to bless them, because that is what you have been chosen by God {what God called you} to do, in order that you may receive a blessing from him. 10Consider what the Psalmist wrote about the proper way of conducting our lives,

As for those who want to enjoy life/to live happily► and experience good things happening to them every day,

they must not say [MTY] something that is evil or say [MTY] something that deceives others.

11They must continually turn away from doing anything that is evil, and must do things that are good instead.

They must deeply desire to enable people to act peacefully toward each other;

they must zealously urge people to act in a peaceful way,

12because the Lord sees [MTY] what righteous people do and he appreciates/likes what they do.

He listens to righteous people when they pray, and he answers them.

But he is [MTY] opposed to those who do evil things.
