Don’t (3/4)

Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t retaliate with insults when people insult you. Instead, pay them back with a blessing. That is what God has called you to do, and he will grant you his blessing.Do not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, bless, for to this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.
But even if you suffer for doing what is right, God will reward you for it. So don’t worry or be afraid of their threats.But even if you should suffer for righteousness' sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled.
Whatever you give is acceptable if you give it eagerly. And give according to what you have, not what you don’t have.For if the readiness is there, it is acceptable according to what a person has, not according to what he does not have.
For you are free, yet you are God’s slaves, so don’t use your freedom as an excuse to do evil.Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.
The Lord will work out his plans for my life— for your faithful love, O Lord, endures forever. Don’t abandon me, for you made me.The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me; your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever. Do not forsake the work of your hands.
Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” And the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice.And Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.” And they cast lots to divide his garments.
See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognize that we are God’s children because they don’t know him.See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him.
But Jesus said, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children.”But Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.”
O Lord, I have come to you for protection; don’t let me be disgraced. Save me, for you do what is right.In you, O Lord, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame; in your righteousness deliver me!
Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good.Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good.
When you make a promise to God, don’t delay in following through, for God takes no pleasure in fools. Keep all the promises you make to him.When you vow a vow to God, do not delay paying it, for he has no pleasure in fools. Pay what you vow.
Don’t misunderstand why I have come. I did not come to abolish the law of Moses or the writings of the prophets. No, I came to accomplish their purpose.Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
But don’t just listen to God’s word. You must do what it says. Otherwise, you are only fooling yourselves.But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
When you pray, don’t babble on and on as the Gentiles do. They think their prayers are answered merely by repeating their words again and again.And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words.
But in fact, it is best for you that I go away, because if I don’t, the Advocate won’t come. If I do go away, then I will send him to you.Nevertheless, I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you. But if I go, I will send him to you.
I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.
Don’t envy violent people or copy their ways. Such wicked people are detestable to the Lord, but he offers his friendship to the godly.Do not envy a man of violence and do not choose any of his ways, for the devious person is an abomination to the Lord, but the upright are in his confidence.
Don’t team up with those who are unbelievers. How can righteousness be a partner with wickedness? How can light live with darkness?Do not be unequally yoked with unbelievers. For what partnership has righteousness with lawlessness? Or what fellowship has light with darkness?
Don’t be afraid of those who want to kill your body; they cannot touch your soul. Fear only God, who can destroy both soul and body in hell.And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather fear him who can destroy both soul and body in hell.
Be still in the presence of the Lord, and wait patiently for him to act. Don’t worry about evil people who prosper or fret about their wicked schemes.Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; fret not yourself over the one who prospers in his way, over the man who carries out evil devices!
Hear my prayer, O Lord! Listen to my cries for help! Don’t ignore my tears. For I am your guest— a traveler passing through, as my ancestors were before me.Hear my prayer, O Lord, and give ear to my cry; hold not your peace at my tears! For I am a sojourner with you, a guest, like all my fathers.
Accept other believers who are weak in faith, and don’t argue with them about what they think is right or wrong.As for the one who is weak in faith, welcome him, but not to quarrel over opinions.
“Don’t be afraid, Mary,” the angel told her, “for you have found favor with God! You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you will name him Jesus.”And the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus.”
Don’t be impressed with your own wisdom. Instead, fear the Lord and turn away from evil. Then you will have healing for your body and strength for your bones.Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.
Don’t love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.”Keep your life free from love of money, and be content with what you have, for he has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”

If you claim to be religious but don’t control your tongue, you are fooling yourself, and your religion is worthless.If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worthless.
