I read this as "Make yourselves good for the benefit of everyone". A
good sentiment, but not equivalent to the one requested.
I can see "be excellent" as {peQaQ'eghmoH}, but I don't get the sense
of "to each other" from {HochvaD}. I think "to each other" would
normally be best expressed with {-chuq}, but there doesn't seem to be
an "action verb" here to hang this on to.
