Romans 12:19-21

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁹ Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave room for the wrath of God;^[a] for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” ²⁰ No, “if your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them something to drink; for by doing this you will heap burning coals on their heads.” ²¹ Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
