Luke 6:27-36 - The Sermon On The Plain: Love For Enemies
27 But I say unto you that hear, Love your enemies with divine love, and do good to those that hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who despitefully use you. 29 To the one smiting thee on the cheek turn the other also; and from the one taking away thy cloak do not withhold even the coat. 30 Give to every one asking thee, and turn not away from the one taking thy possessions, 31 And as you wish that the people may do unto you, do ye unto them even likewise. 32 If you love those who love you, what grace is there to you? for even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you may do good to those doing good to you, what grace is there to you? for sinners also do the same. 34 And if you may lend to those from whom you may hope to receive, what grace is there to you? for sinners lend to sinners, that they may receive back the equivalent. 35 Moreover love your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping nothing in return; and your reward shall be great, and you shall be the sons of the Highest: because He is good to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Therefore be ye merciful, as your Father is indeed merciful.
