Romans 12:19-21

19 Beloved, ^anever avenge yourselves, but leave it ^{▼▼Greek give place} to the wrath of God, for it is written, ^c“Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord.” 20 To the contrary, ^d“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.” 21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

James 2:13

13 For ^ejudgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
