The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth.

Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men.

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.

For ye remember, brethren, our labour and travail: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable unto any of you, we preached unto you the gospel of God.

Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.

For yourselves know how ye ought to follow us: for we behaved not ourselves disorderly among you;

Not because we have not power, but to make ourselves an ensample unto you to follow us.

For we hear that there are some which walk among you disorderly, working not at all, but are busybodies.
