Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 20:22

Verse 22. I will recompense evil ] Wait on the Lord; judgment is his, and his judgments are sure. In the mean time pray for the conversion of your enemy.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 22. Say not thou, I will recompense evil , etc.] With evil; do an injury to one that has done one to you; private revenge is not to be taken, but should be left to God, to whom vengeance belongs, ( Deuteronomy 32:35,41); [but] wait on the Lord, and he shall save thee ; commit thyself and cause to God; leave it with him to avenge thy wrongs; wait upon him in the way of thy duty, and wait his own time to do thee justice; he will at the proper season, and in his own way, save thee from thine enemy, and make a righteous retribution to him.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 22 - Wait on the Lord, attend his pleasure, and he will protect thee.
