'Evil' in the Bible

You are witnesses, with God, how holy and upright and free from all evil was our way of life among you who have faith;

For this reason, when I was no longer able to keep quiet, I sent to get news of your faith, fearing that you might be tested by the Evil One and that our work might come to nothing.

Not in the passion of evil desires, like the Gentiles, who have no knowledge of God;

See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men.

Abstain from all appearance of evil.
