[Avodah] Davening for one's enemy

I appreciate all the examples that people gave, but I think that bringing examples from Tanach misses the point.
   
  Most of the examples mentioned show the tzidkus of the individuals involved, and, with the possible exception of Avimelech and Avraham, it is unclear if there was personal animus involved.
   
  Do we have prescriptive suggestions from sifrei mussar or the sefarim hakidoshim encouraging people to daven for people for whom they have negative feelings (e.g. anger, resentment, jealousy)?
