LOVE Leviticus 19:18

"'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD.'"

Do not seek revenge
Romans 12:19 Do not take revenge, my friends, but leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," says the Lord.
Hebrews 10:30 For we know him who said, "It is mine to avenge; I will repay," and again, "The Lord will judge his people."

or bear a grudge
Psalm 103:9 He will not always accuse, nor will he harbor his anger forever; ...

but love your neighbor
Exodus 20:16 "You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor."

as yourself
Leviticus 19:34 "'The alien living with you must be treated as one of your native-born. Love him as yourself, for you were aliens in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.'"
Matthew 5:43-44 "You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' But I tell you: Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, ..."
Matthew 22:39 "And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
Mark 12:31 "The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these."
Luke 10:27 He answered, "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
John 13:34 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another."
Romans 13:9 The commandments, "Do not commit adultery," "Do not murder," "Do not steal," "Do not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this one rule: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
Galatians 5:14 The entire law is summed up in a single command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
James 2:8 If you really keep the royal law found in scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing right.
