On the contrary...
Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, ...
Luke 6:28 Bless them that curse you, ...
Romans 12:14 Bless them which persecute you: bless, and curse not.
James 3:8-10
8 But the tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
9 Therewith bless we God, even the Father; and therewith curse we men, which are made after the similitude of God.
10 Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.
