Romans 12:19 - Forerunner Commentary

Romans 12:19

17 ^aRepay no one evil for evil. ^bHave regard for good things in the sight of all men.

18 If it is possible, as much as depends on you, ^alive peaceably with all men.

19 Beloved, ^ado not avenge yourselves, but rather give place to wrath; for it is written, ^b“Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord.

20 Therefore
^a“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;
If he is thirsty, give him a drink;
For in so doing you will heap coals of fire on his head.”

21 Do not be overcome by evil, but ^aovercome evil with good.
