בִּרְצ֣וֹת יְ֭הוָה דַּרְכֵי־אִ֑ישׁ גַּם־א֝וֹיְבָ֗יו יַשְׁלִ֥ם אִתּֽוֹ׃
Kapag kinalulugdan ng Walang-Hanggan ang mga landas ng tao, pati ang kanyang mga kaaway ay pinapagkasundo Niya sa kanya.
Duties of the Heart
If his enemy becomes a means to harm him, he should judge them favorably and suspect that it is due to himself or his past deeds from his bad start in life towards G-d. He should plead to the Al-mighty and seek from Him to atone for his sins, and then his enemies will become his friends, as the wise man said "when G-d is pleased with a man's way, even his enemies will make peace with him" (Mishlei 16:7).
Duties of the Heart
"And the proofs which you brought from the words of our Sages does not imply that one needs to try to find favor in the eyes of everyone. Rather this is like the case of the wise man that left in his will a command to his son: 'My son, to find favor with the public is not in your ability. Instead try to find favor with the Creator and He will grant you favor with the public, as written "When G-d finds favor in a person's ways, He will cause even his enemies to make peace with him" (Mishlei 16:7).
Duties of the Heart
If he hurt his fellow physically or damaged his possessions, the Creator will put in his fellow's heart favor and love until he forgives him for his sin towards him, as written: "When the L-ord favors a person's ways, He will cause even his enemies to make peace with him" (Mishlei 16:7).
