Romans 12:17 Douay-Rheims

To no man rendering evil for evil. Providing good things, not only in the sight of God, but also in the sight of all men.

Tertullian

c. A.D. 150–220 Patristic

In evil doing there is no account taken of order, nor does place separate what similarity conjoins. And the precept is absolute, that evil is not to be repaid with evil. Like deed involves like merit.
