Proverbs 20:22

¹⁷Repay no one evil for evil. Respect what is honorable in the sight of all men. ¹⁸If it is possible, as much as it is up to you, be at peace with all men. ¹⁹Don’t seek revenge yourselves, beloved, but give place to God’s wrath. For it is written, “Vengeance belongs to me; I will repay, says the Lord.”

¹⁵See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.

²⁹Don’t say, “I will do to him as he has done to me; I will repay the man according to his work.”

¹³Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

⁹not rendering evil for evil or insult for insult; but instead blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing.

³⁵Vengeance is mine, and recompense, at the time when their foot slides, for the day of their calamity is at hand. Their doom rushes at them.”

²³When he was cursed, he didn’t curse back. When he suffered, he didn’t threaten, but committed himself to him who judges righteously.

³⁹But I tell you, don’t resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.

¹⁹Therefore let them also who suffer according to the will of God in doing good entrust their souls to him, as to a faithful Creator.

¹⁴Wait for the LORD. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for the LORD.
