Proverbs 17:13
Berean Standard Bible
If anyone returns evil for good, evil will never leave his house.
Context
11An evil man seeks only rebellion;
a cruel messenger will be sent against him. 12It is better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs
than a fool in his folly. 13If anyone returns evil for good,
evil will never leave his house. 14To start a quarrel is to release a flood;
so abandon the dispute before it breaks out. 15Acquitting the guilty and condemning the righteous—
both are detestable to the LORD.
