22 Do not say, "I'll pay you back for this wrong!" Wait for the Lord, and he will avenge you.
22 Say not thou, I will recompense evil; but wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee.
22 Do not say, "I will repay evil"; wait for the Lord, and he will deliver you.
22 Don't ever say, "I'll get you for that!" Wait for God; he'll settle the score.
22 Do not say, "I will recompense evil"; Wait for the Lord, and He will save you.
22 Don't say, "I will get even for this wrong." Wait for the Lord to handle the matter.
