Forgiveness
14 Bless those who persecute you. Bless and {do} not curse. 15 Rejoice with those who rejoice; weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with one another. Do not be proud, but associate with the lowly. {Do} not be conceited.
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, but leave room for [God’s] wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance [is] Mine; I will repay, says [the] Lord.”[fn]
“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.”[fn]
21 {Do} not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
12:19 Deuteronomy 32:35 (see also LXX)
