25 Bible Verses About Doing For Others (ESV)

10 So then, as we have opportunity, let us do good to everyone, and especially to those who are of the household of faith.

29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.

16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.

13:1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.

4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.

13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

15:1 We who are strong have an obligation to bear with the failings of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

28 And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.

35 By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

31 And as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

35 In all things I have shown you that by working hard in this way we must help the weak and remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he himself said, ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’”

38 give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

18 Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

4 Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.

12 “This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

10 For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for his name in serving the saints, as you still do.

12 “So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

6 And I am sure of this, that he who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ.

32 Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.

40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

35 For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.’

14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

2 Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.

17   Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the LORD,
    and he will repay him for his deed.

27   Do not withhold good from those to whom it is due,
    when it is in your power to do it.
