Romans 12:18-21 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

¹⁸If it is possible on your part, live at peace with everyone.

¹⁹Do not avenge yourselves, beloved, but leave room for God’s wrath. For it is written: “Vengeance is Mine; I will repay, says the Lord.”

²⁰On the contrary,

“If your enemy is hungry, feed him;if he is thirsty, give him a drink.

For in so doing,

you will heap burning coals on his head.”

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