(E)Live in peace with one another. 14 We urge you, brothers and sisters, admonish (F)the [d]unruly, encourage (G)the fainthearted, help (H)the weak, be (I)patient with everyone. 15 See that (J)no one repays another with evil for evil, but always (K)seek what is good for one another and for all people.
