Romans 12:19 in Context — Romans 12
17 No paguéis á nadie mal por mal; procurad lo bueno delante de todos los hombres.
18 Si se puede hacer, cuanto está en vosotros, tened paz con todos los hombres.
19 No os venguéis vosotros mismos, amados míos; antes dad lugar á la ira; porque escrito está: Mía es la venganza: yo pagaré, dice el Señor.
20 Así que, si tu enemigo tuviere hambre, dale de comer; si tuviere sed, dale de beber: que haciendo esto, ascuas de fuego amontonas sobre su cabeza.
21 No seas vencido de lo malo; mas vence con el bien el mal.
