"Be of the same mind one toward another. mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits. Recompense to no man evil for evil. Provide things honest in the sight of all men. If it be possible, as much as leith in you, live peaceably with all men.
Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord. Therefore if thine enemy hunger, feed him; if he thirst, give him drink: for in so doing thou shalt heap coals of fire on his head. Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good."
~Romans 12:16-21, KJV

Avenge not yourself, but give place unto God's wrath. If you want revenge do not rush out and get in the way of the Lord. Rather, let Him deal with it and He will repay. We are His children and if we lash out then it will get in the way of Him dealing with those who trespass against us. It is like us humans with children, if our children reacts and does something petty if they are wronged then it makes it hard to discipline the one who wronged them because they themselves need discipline.
Do not get caught up in vengeance and evil so much that you do evil yourself. Do not let evil overcome you but do good so you can overcome it and let the Lord deal with those who hurt you.
