RETRIBUTION

Dei Verbum is significant in reading and understanding the word of

God since it is created during the Second Vatican Council, which laid the
groundwork for the Roman Catholic Church's future role in the world. And
the Catholic Church considers it the primary heart of Christianity, with
various chapters outlining their views. The intention is for the book
Scripture to be known as teaching in a solid, faithful, and error-free
manner the truth that God meant to place into sacred texts for the sake of
salvation. And Catholics believe that Divine Revelation is God's Word
expressed in human terms, that we can communicate with God through
Scripture, and that this allows us to share in God's nature.

I've recognized that exacting retribution is a never-ending cycle of

revenge that isn't a long-term solution to seeking justice but rather a
temporary fix. Even if others have offended me, it is crucial not to seek
retribution because I should not hurt those who have wronged me or return
evil with evil; instead, I should let God do it for me. I recall back in
high school when a group of people betrayed me by spreading false rumors
about me because they resented me, and instead of ignoring them, I fought
back and did the same thing. Even though I got my revenge, I'm not
satisfied since I've recognized that taking revenge isn't worth it because
it didn't make me feel any better, and I wish I had chosen forgiveness
instead.

To summarize, retribution is a violent method that no one should be

encouraged to engage in, although revenge is a usual topic in the world.
When we are mistreated as humans, we can't help but feel resentment toward
those who have wronged us. However, it is critical to recognize that taking
revenge will only make a person feel worse in the long run. And we should
put more emphasis on forgiveness rather than revenge because it is the only
way to move on. And I'd like to end with this quote: "two wrongs don't make
a right," which is why revenge should never be an option as a means of
retribution.
