Romanos 12

19 *Dt 32.35.Dear friends, don’t try to get even. Let God take revenge. In the Scriptures the Lord says,

"I am the one to take revenge

and pay them back."

20 *Pr 25.21,22 (LXX).The Scriptures also say,

"If your enemies are hungry,

give them something to eat.

And if they are thirsty,

give them something

to drink.

This will be the same

as piling burning coals

on their heads."

21 Don’t let evil defeat you, but defeat evil with good.
