Answer

"Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good." Rom. 12: 21.
NOTE - In 1 John 5: 4 that which we are to overcome is called "the world"; and in 1 John 2: 1517 the things of which "the world" consists are described as "the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes,
and the pride of life."
