Then He will judge between many peoples and arbitrate for strong nations far and wide. Then they will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will no longer take up the sword against nation, nor will they train anymore for war.

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God.

And if he is unable, he will send a delegation while the other king is still far off, to ask for terms of peace.

That day Herod and Pilate became friends; before this time they had been enemies.

The next day he came upon two Israelites who were fighting, and he tried to reconcile them, saying, ‘Men, you are brothers. Why are you mistreating each other?’

Now Herod was in a furious dispute with the people of Tyre and Sidon, and they convened before him. Having secured the support of Blastus, the king’s chamberlain, they asked for peace, because their region depended on the king’s country for food.

They came to appease them and led them out, requesting that they leave the city.

As soon as he had said this, a dispute broke out between the Pharisees and Sadducees, and the assembly was divided.

If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone.

As for those who are agitating you, I wish they would proceed to emasculate themselves!

Get rid of all bitterness, rage and anger, outcry and slander, along with every form of malice.

Peacemakers who sow in peace reap the fruit of righteousness.
