Romans 12:17-19

Worldwide English (New Testament)

¹⁷ When people do wrong things to you, do not do wrong things to them also. But try to do good things for all people.

¹⁸ As much as you can, live in peace with everyone.

¹⁹ My dear brothers, do not punish people who do wrong to you. But let God's anger punish them. In the holy writings the Lord says, `I myself will punish people. If they have done wrong things, I will do wrong things to them also.'
