The Bible generally teaches that revenge belongs to God and that humans should not take revenge into their own hands. Key verses emphasize that God will repay wrongs in His own time and way, and believers are encouraged to leave justice to God rather than seeking personal revenge. For example, Romans 12:19 says, "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." (Romans 12:19) and Deuteronomy 32:35 says, "Vengeance is mine, and recompense; their foot shall slip in due time." Additionally, the Bible exhorts followers to repay evil with kindness and forgiveness rather than revenge. Jesus taught to "turn the other cheek" and blessed those who show mercy even to their enemies. Passages like 1 Peter 3:9 advise against returning evil for evil, but rather blessing others to inherit a blessing. In summary, the biblical perspective is that seeking personal revenge is discouraged, and God's perfect justice should be trusted to handle wrongdoing and punishment, while believers are called to respond with forgiveness and love toward their enemies.
