| Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. | Never take your own revenge, beloved, but leave room for the wrath of God, for it is written: “Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,” says the Lord. |
| Who will render to every man according to his deeds. | Who will repay each person according to his deeds. |
| Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing. | Not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you would inherit a blessing. |
| And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. | Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to reward each one as his work deserves. |
| The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. | The wicked borrows and does not pay back, But the righteous is gracious and gives. |
| For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. | For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and will then repay every person according to his deeds. |
| Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work. | And faithfulness is Yours, Lord, For You reward a person according to his work. |
| See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. | See that no one repays another with evil for evil, but always seek what is good for one another and for all people. |
