Now if you practice loving only those who love you, what credit do you get for that? Why, even notorious sinners practice loving those who love them.

But I say to you who listen now to me, practice loving your enemies, practice doing good to those who hate you,

But you must practice loving your enemies, doing good to them, and lending to them, despairing of nothing; so that your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High, because He is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.
