Judges 11:14

Jephthah sent messengers back to the Ammonite king

I am committed to peace, but when I speak, they want to make war.

If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all people.

Pursue peace with everyone, and holiness, for without it no one will see the Lord.

And he must turn away from evil and do good; he must seek peace and pursue it.
