Proverbs 20:22
Say not thou, I will recompense evil: Wait for Jehovah, and he will save thee.
-
1 Thessalonians 5 15
See that none render unto any one evil for evil; but always follow after that which is good, one toward another, and toward all.

Romans 12:17-21
Render to no man evil for evil. Take thought for things honorable in the sight of all men.If it be possible, as much as in you lieth, be at peace with all men.Avenge not yourselves, beloved, but give place unto the wrath of God: for it is written, Vengeance belongeth unto me; I will recompense, saith the Lord.But if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him to drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head.Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.

2 Samuel 13 22-2 Samuel 13 28
And Absalom spake unto Amnon neither good nor bad; for Absalom hated Amnon, because he had forced his sister Tamar.And it came to pass after two full years, that Absalom had sheep- shearers in Baal- hazor, which is beside Ephraim: and Absalom invited all the king’s sons.And Absalom came to the king, and said, Behold now, thy servant hath sheep- shearers; let the king, I pray thee, and his servants go with thy servant.And the king said to Absalom, Nay, my son, let us not all go, lest we be burdensome unto thee. And he pressed him: howbeit he would not go, but blessed him.Then said Absalom, If not, I pray thee, let my brother Amnon go with us. And the king said unto him, Why should he go with thee?But Absalom pressed him, and he let Amnon and all the king’s sons go with him.And Absalom commanded his servants, saying, Mark ye now, when Amnon’s heart is merry with wine; and when I say unto you, Smite Amnon, then kill him; fear not; have not I commanded you? be courageous, and be valiant.

If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; And if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:For thou wilt heap coals of fire upon his head, And Jehovah will reward thee.

Judges 15:11
Then three thousand men of Judah went down to the cleft of the rock of Etam, and said to Samson, Knowest thou not that the Philistines are rulers over us? what then is this that thou hast done unto us? And he said unto them, As they did unto me, so have I done unto them.

Matthew 5:39-44
but I say unto you, Resist not him that is evil: but whosoever smiteth thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.And if any man would go to law with thee, and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.And whosoever shall compel thee to go one mile, go with him two.Give to him that asketh thee, and from him that would borrow of thee turn not thou away.Ye have heard that it was said, Thou shalt love thy neighbor, and hate thine enemy:but I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you;
