Romans 12:18-21

18If possible, 1so far as it depends on you, 2be at peace with all men.

193Never take your own revenge, beloved, but 4leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written, “5Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.

20“6But if your enemy is hungry, feed him, and if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.”

21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
