Deuteronomy 22:1-4
“ If you see your brother’s ox or sheep straying, you must not ignore it; make sure you return it to your brother.If your brother does not live near you or you don’t know him, you are to bring the animal to your home to remain with you until your brother comes looking for it; then you can return it to him.Do the same for his donkey, his garment, or anything your brother has lost and you have found. You must not ignore it.If you see your brother’s donkey or ox fallen down on the road, you must not ignore it; you must help him lift it up.

Do not repay anyone evil for evil.

For it is written: Vengeance belongs to Me; I will repay, says the Lord.But If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him something to drink. For in so doing you will be heaping fiery coals on his head.Do not be conquered by evil, but conquer evil with good.
