Galatians 5:14

For the entire Law has been obeyed when you have kept the single precept, which says, "You are to love your fellow man equally with yourself."

Weymouth NT (1912)

In The King James Version

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

15But if you are perpetually snarling and snapping at one another, beware lest you are destroyed by one another.
