"9Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing."
If someone include friends or family hurt, judge, insult, abuse (beat), or make fun of you, don't pay them back with the same thing they did to you like hurt them back or insult them back because these are evil. Forgive and bless them (evil people) with love. It is like paying them (evil people) back with good deeds such as praying for them, forgiving them, and loving them. Be merciful because evil people don't know what is right and really need Jesus's help.
Ephesians 4:32 (King James Version)
"32And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
Be good to the people as Jesus was good to them. Be gently and forgivable like Jesus Christ. Forgive people as Jesus forgives people. If you don't forgive them, Jesus won't forgive you.
Matthew 5:11-12 (King James Version)
"11Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you."
Evil people insult or mock (make fun) you because they did the same evil things to Jesus on the Earth. Be happy because you are on the way to the heaven. Show your love to the evil people as they do evil things to you, and the reward would be great or big in heaven.
