Proverbs 20:20-22

New International Reader's Version

²⁰ If anyone asks for bad things to happen to their father or mother,
    that person’s lamp will be blown out in total darkness.

²¹ Property that you claim too soon
    will not be blessed in the end.

²² Don’t say, “I’ll get even with you for the wrong you did to me!”
    Wait for the Lord, and he will make things right for you.
