A found poem from The New Oxford Annotated Bible:
Romans 12:9-18 (Revised Standard Version)
by Paul
Let love be genuine;
hate what is evil,
hold fast to what is good;
love one another with brotherly affection;
outdo one another in showing honor.
Never flag in zeal,
be aglow with the Spirit,
serve the Lord.
Rejoice in your hope,
be patient in tribulation,
be constant in prayer.
Contribute to the needs of the saints,
practice hospitality.
Bless those who persecute you;
bless and do not curse them.
Rejoice with those who rejoice,
weep with those who weep.
Live in harmony with one another;
do not be haughty,
but associate with the lowly;
never be conceited.
Repay no one evil for evil,
but take thought for what is noble
in the sight of all.
If possible,
so far as it depends upon you,
live peaceably with all.
