10 Scripture says,

“Suppose someone wants to love life
    and see good days.
Then they must keep their tongues from speaking evil.
    They must keep their lips from telling lies.
11 They must turn away from evil and do good.
    They must look for peace and go after it.
12 The Lord’s eyes look on godly people, and he blesses them.
    His ears are open to their prayers.
But the Lord doesn’t bless those who do evil.” (Psalm 34:12–16)

10 For,

“Whoever would love life
    and see good days
must keep their tongue from evil
    and their lips from deceitful speech.
11 They must turn from evil and do good;
    they must seek peace and pursue it.
12 For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous
    and his ears are attentive to their prayer,
but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”[a](A)
