"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor' and 'Hate your enemy.'

But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not the tax collectors also do the same?

And whenever you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, because they love to stand [and] pray in the synagogues and on the corners of the streets, in order that they may be seen by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full!

"No one is able to serve two masters. For either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You are not able to serve God and money.

honor your father and your mother, and love your neighbor as yourself."

And he said to him, " 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.'

And the second [is] like it: 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.'

And they love the place of honor at banquets and the best seats in the synagogues

and because lawlessness will increase, the love of many will grow cold.
