Passages for the Insulted
[9] Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. On the contrary, repay evil with blessing, because to this you were called so that you may inherit a blessing.

[16] Fools show their annoyance at once,
but the prudent overlook an insult.

[14] If you are insulted because of the name of Christ, you are blessed, for the Spirit of glory and of God rests on you. [15] If you suffer, it should not be as a murderer or thief or any other kind of criminal, or even as a meddler. [16] However, if you suffer as a Christian, do not be ashamed, but praise God that you bear that name. [17] For it is time for judgment to begin with God’s household; and if it begins with us, what will the outcome be for those who do not obey the gospel of God? [18] And,
“If it is hard for the righteous to be saved,
what will become of the ungodly and the sinner?”
[19] So then, those who suffer according to God’s will should commit themselves to their faithful Creator and continue to do good.
