New Testament

Romans 12:18-21 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

18. Do the best you can to live in peace with everyone.

19. My friends, don’t try to punish anyone who does wrong to you. Wait for God to punish them with his anger. In the Scriptures the Lord says, “I am the one who punishes; I will pay people back.”Deuteronomy 32:35

20. But you should do this: “If you have enemies who are hungry, give them something to eat. If you have enemies who are thirsty, give them something to drink. In doing this you will make them feel ashamed.” Proverbs 25:21-22

21. Don’t let evil defeat you, but defeat evil by doing good.
