Romans 12:17-21
171NeverG3367 payG591 backG591 evilG2556 for evilG2556 to anyoneG3367. 23RespectG4306 whatG2570 is rightG2570 in the sightG1799 of allG3956 menG444.
18IfG1487 possibleG1415, 4so farG3588 as it dependsG1537 on you, 5be at peaceG1514 with allG3956 menG444.
196NeverG3361 takeG1556 your ownG1438 revengeG1556, belovedG27, but 7leaveG1325 roomG5117 for the wrathG3709 of God, for it is writtenG1125, “8VengeanceG1557 is MineG1699, I will repayG467,” saysG3004 the LordG2962.
20“9But ifG1437 your enemyG2190 is hungryG3983, feedG5595 him, and ifG1437 he is thirstyG1372, giveG4222 him a drinkG4222; for in soG3778 doingG4160 you will heapG4987 burningG4442 coalsG440 on his headG2776.”
21Do not be overcomeG3528 by evilG2556, but overcomeG3528 evilG2556 with goodG18.
