Romans 12:19-21

19Beloved, cnever avenge yourselves, but leave it ▼
▼Greek give place
 to the wrath of God, for it is written, e“Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” 20To the contrary, f“if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.” 21Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
