14 Blast those who persecute you; blast but do not curse (cussing is bad, mkay). 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with one another (unless, you know...). Do not be "haughty" [wink wink], but associate with the lowly (if ya have to). Never be wise in your own sight, but make sure others can see it too. 17 Repay EVERYONE evil for evil, but give thought to do what is bombable in the sight of all. 18 If possible, so far as it depends on on their actions, live peaceably with all. 19 Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the armed forces, for it is written, “Vengeance is ours, I give you my role to repay, says the Lord.” 20 To the contrary, “if your enemy is hungry, embargo; if he is thirsty, cut off the pipes; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head*.” 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with superior firepower.
*translators note: This probably means napalm or incendiary munitions.
