You do yourself a favor when you are kind. If you are cruel, you only hurt yourself.
If your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them a drink. You will make them burn with shame, and the Lord will reward you.

Two Proverbs on Kindness
From the Bible: Proverbs 11:17 and 25:21-22 (Good News Translation)
You do yourself a favor when you are kind. If you are cruel, you only hurt yourself.
If your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them a drink. You will make them burn with shame, and the Lord will reward you.

If your enemies are hungry, feed them; if they are thirsty, give them a drink. You will make them burn with shame, and the Lord will reward you.
