1 Peter 2:11-12

111Beloved, 2I urge you as 3foreigners and strangers to abstain from 4fleshly lusts, which wage 5war against the soul. 126Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they 7slander you as evildoers, they may 8because of your good deeds, as they observe them, 9glorify God 10on the day of 11visitation.
