Judges 11:14

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And Jephthah sent messengers again unto the king of the children of Ammon:

I am for peace, but when I talk about it, they only talk about war.

When it is possible, be peaceable with all men.

Pursue peace and holiness with all people, for no man will see the Lord without it.

Let him turn away from evil, and do good. Let him seek peace, and pursue it.
