SEV Biblia, Chapter 25:22

porque ascuas allegas sobre su cabeza, y el SEÑOR te lo pagará.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Proverbs 25:22

Verse 22. Thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head ] Not to consume, but to melt him into kindness; a metaphor taken from smelting metallic ores: - So artists melt the sullen ore of lead, By heaping coals of fire upon its head: In the kind warmth the metal learns to glow, And pure from dross the silver runs below. S. WESLEY.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 22. For thou shall heap coals of fire upon his head , etc.] Not to increase his punishment and damnation, the more aggravated by kindness shown him; but to bring him by such means to a sense of former injuries, and to shame for them, repentance of them, and love of the person injured, and carefulness for the future of doing him any further wrong; and the Lord shall reward thee : with good things, for all the good done to thine enemy, whether it has the desired effect on him or not; or whether he rewards thee or not; (see Romans 12:20,21).

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 21, 22 - The precept to love even our enemies is an Old Testament commandment Our Saviour has shown his own great example in loving us when we wer enemies.
