Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be seasoned?

Have salt

Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers.

Let your speech be alway with grace, seasoned with salt, that ye may know how ye ought to answer every man.

Have peace

Depart from evil, and do good; seek peace, and pursue it.

{A Song of degrees of David.} Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

These things I command you, that ye love one another.

If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men.

For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

Only let your conversation be as it becometh the gospel of Christ: that whether I come and see you, or else be absent, I may hear of your affairs, that ye stand fast in one spirit, with one mind striving together for the faith of the gospel;

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;

Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:

For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.

But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth.

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:
