Justice is theoretically based on an objective standard of what is best for society, given all the facts.
Revenge is based on what a grieving person thinks will make themselves feel better.

I was just in a federal courtroom like, an hour ago, and the wall over the judge's bench said, (in latin), Justice is truth. That cuts to the nature of your question. People that come before the court always want the other party to be struck with a bolt of lightning but the courts don't work that way. It's the courts job to seek justice, not revenge, and to keep you from seeking your own.
You don't have to feel bad about wanting to see people who deserve it suffer, just don't do anthing about it. Whatever higher power exists will give them theirs, or, at least, what goes around comes around.

Don't get even get revenge, Justice would be seeing someone found guilty for a crime he or she comitted, revenge would be to pay someone in prison to harm that person, personally I like the revenge better than justice!

Revenge is putting someone through what they put you through. trying to get to that eye for an eye ideal. Justice is when it's put on paper what they put you through then they get boot camp, or probabation so they can screw over a few dozen more people before any real "justice" is done

Justice is done without feelings as a motivation.
