Romans 14:19

19 So then, let us follow after the things which make for peace, and things by which one may edify another.

1 Corinthians 13:1-13

1 THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods in food, and though I give up my body that I may be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love suffers long, is kind; love envies not; love vaunts not itself, is not puffed up, 5 does not behave itself unseemly, seeks not its own, is not easily provoked, imputes no evil; 6 rejoices not at unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails; but whether there are prophesyings, they will be done away; whether tongues, they will cease; whether knowledge, it will be done away. 9 For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part will be done away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I thought as a child, I reasoned as a child; but now that I am become a man, I have done away the things of the child. 12 For we see now in a mirror, obscurely; but then face to face. Now I know in part; but then I shall know fully, even as I also am fully known. 13 And now remain faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.

Romans 12:19

19 Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place to the wrath [of God]. For it is written: To me belongs vengeance; I will recompense, saith the Lord.
