Romans 12:14

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

Bless them that persecute you: bless, and curse not.

See the chapter Copy

Not rendering evil for evil, nor railing for railing, but contrariwise, blessing: for unto this are you called, that you may inherit a blessing.

But I say to you, Love your enemies: do good to them that hate you: and pray for them that persecute and calumniate you:

See that none render evil for evil to any man; but ever follow that which is good towards each other, and towards all men.

Be not overcome by evil, but overcome evil by good.

Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you.

Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

And Jesus said: Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do. But they, dividing his garments, cast lots.
