1 Peter 3:8-12 - Called To Inherit A Blessing

8 Lastly, you should all be united, sympathetic, full of brotherly love, kind-hearted, humble-minded; 9 never returning evil for evil, or abuse for abuse, but, on the contrary, blessing. It was to this that you were called--to obtain a blessing!

10 'He who would enjoy life And see happy days-- let him keep his tongue from evil And his lips from deceitful words, 11 Let him turn from evil and do good, Let him seek for peace and follow after it; 12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And his ears are attentive to their prayers, But the face of the Lord is set against those who do wrong.'
