Prayers of vengeance are prayers that commit vengeance to the Lord. This is the way of faith: to recognize that God is the judge and to leave the execution of justice in his hands according to his time.1 Whereas Saul sought to avenge himself on those who did him wrong (1 Samuel 14:24; 1 Samuel 18:25), David left vengeance in the hands of the Lord.2
13 L'Eternel sera juge entre moi et toi, et l'Eternel me vengera de toi; mais je ne porterai point la main sur toi.
