Bible verses about "hatred" | MKJV

Leviticus 19:17

17 You shall not hate your brother in your heart. You shall always rebuke your neighbor, and not allow sin on him.

Proverbs 20:22

22 Do not say, I will repay evil; wait on Jehovah, and He will save you.

Proverbs 10:18

18 He who hides hatred with lying lips, and he who speaks a slander, is a fool.

Matthew 5:43-45

43 You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy." 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you, 45 so that you may become sons of your Father in Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.

Galatians 5:19-21

19 Now the works of the flesh are clearly revealed, which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lustfulness, 20 idolatry, sorcery, hatreds, fightings, jealousies, angers, rivalries, divisions, heresies, 21 envyings, murders, drunkennesses, revelings, and things like these; of which I tell you before, as I also said before, that they who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

James 4:1-17

1 From where do wars and fightings among you come? Is it not from this, from your lusts which war in your members? 2 You desire, and do not have. You murder, and are jealous, and cannot obtain. You fight and war, yet you have not because you ask not. 3 You ask and receive not, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it upon your lusts. 4 Adulterers and adulteresses! Do you not know that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever desires to be a friend of the world is the enemy of God. 5 Do you think that the Scripture says in vain, The spirit that dwells in us yearns to envy? 6 But He gives more grace. Therefore He says, God resists the proud, but He gives grace to the humble. 7 Therefore submit yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. 8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, sinners; and purify your hearts, double-minded ones. 9 Be afflicted, and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to heaviness. 10 Be humbled before the Lord, and He will lift you up. 11 Do not speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against his brother, and who judges his brother, speaks against the Law and judges the Law. But if you judge the Law, you are not a doer of the Law, but a judge. 12 There is one Lawgiver, who is able to save and to destroy. Who are you who judges another? 13 Come now, those saying, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city and spend a year there, and we will trade and will make a profit, 14 who do not know of the morrow. For what is your life? For it is a vapor, which appears for a little time, and then disappears. 15 Instead of you saying, If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that. 16 But now you boast in your presumptions. All such boasting is evil. 17 Therefore to him who knows to do good, and does not do it, to him it is sin.

Luke 6:27-36

27 But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who despitefully use you. 29 And to him who strikes you on the one cheek, also offer the other. And to him who takes away your garment, do not forbid your tunic also. 30 Give to everyone who asks of you, and from him who takes away your goods, do not ask them again. 31 And as you desire that men should do to you, you do also to them likewise. 32 For if you love those who love you, what thanks do you have? For sinners also love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what thanks do you have? For sinners also do the same. 34 And if you lend to those of whom you hope to receive, what thanks do you have? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again. 35 But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return. And your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest. For He is kind to the unthankful and to the evil. 36 Therefore be merciful, even as your Father is merciful.

Proverbs 26:24-26

24 He who hates pretends with his lips and stores up deceit within him. 25 When he makes his voice gracious, do not believe him; for seven hateful things are in his heart. 26 He whose hatred is covered by deceit, his wickedness shall be shown before the congregation.

John 15:18

18 If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you.

1 John 2:11

11 But he who hates his brother is in darkness, and walks in darkness, and does not know where he is going, because darkness has blinded his eyes.

Matthew 5:44

44 But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you,

Matthew 6:15

15 but if you do not forgive men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Proverbs 10:12

12 Hatred stirs up fights, but love covers all sins.

1 John 2:9

9 He who says he is in the light and hates his brother is in darkness until now.

1 John 4:20

20 If anyone says, I love God, and hates his brother, he is a liar. For if he does not love his brother whom he has seen, how can he love God whom he has not seen?
