Psalms 34:14

Turn away from evil and [instead] do good,
seek peace – strive for it (pursue it).
[The fifteenth Hebrew letter is: ס – Samech. The character depicts a pillar and symbolizes support and stability. In this verse, it is the word "Turn" that begins with that letter. The key to peace is to actively turn away from evil, and also to actively pursue what is good. This brings stable peace.]
