You can hope they get their comeuppance, sometimes spelled come-uppance.
It may not entirely provide what you need because there is no inference contained in the word itself that it is an unspoken hope of he/she who seeks vengeance.
It means getting what they deserve. It was coined in the mid-19th century. I believe it may have been used by Dickens, but no reference of his is quoted in the OED entry, which I reproduce below in its entirety.
orig. English and U.S. dial., now gen. in the U.S., less common elsewhere.
