Romans 12:17-21

New American Standard Bible

^17 (A)Never repay evil for evil to anyone. ^[a](B)Respect what is right in the sight of all people. ¹⁸ If possible, ^(C)so far as it depends on you, ^(D)be at peace with all people. ^19 (E)Never take your own revenge, beloved, but ^[b]leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written: “^(F)Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. ²⁰ “^(G)But if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” ²¹ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
