Tao Bible - Proverbs 17:13

Whoso rewardeth evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.
~ King James version ~

If you reward evil for good, learn from your mistake.
~ possible Taoist alternative ~
The biblical verse seems to suggest that one bad move stains a person for life. The Taoist philosophy emphasizes that life is about learning. If you take a misstep, learn to correct it. Mistakes only will become a pox on your house IF you refuse to grow in wisdom.

It's your choice.
