Gill's Notes on the Bible

Say not, I will do so to him as he hath done to me,.... He has falsely accused and reproached me, and bore a false testimony, or suborned false witnesses against me, and I will do the same to him, now an opportunity serves; but as private revenge itself is sinful, so especially when it is pursued in a wicked way;

I will render to the man according to his work; this should be left to the Lord, whose prerogative it is; see Proverbs 24:19.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A protest against vindictiveness in every form. Compare marginal reference.
