John 8:49

49 Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon, but ^aI honor my Father, and you dishonor me.

1 Peter 2:21-23

21 For ^bto this you have been called, ^cbecause Christ also suffered for you, ^dleaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps. 22 ^eHe committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth. 23 ^fWhen he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, ^gbut continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly.

1 Peter 3:9

9 ^hDo not repay evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary, ⁱbless, for ^jto this you were called, that you may obtain a blessing.

1 Peter 3:15

15 but ^kin your hearts honor Christ the Lord as holy, ^lalways being prepared to make a defense to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and ^mrespect,
