17 Do not repay anyone evil for evil. Carefully consider what is right in the eyes of everybody.

18 If it is possible on your⁺ part, live at peace with everyone.

19 Do not avenge yourselves, beloved {agapētoi}, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord .”

20 On the contrary, “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.
