Ye have heard that it hath been said, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy."

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who treat you insolently, and persecute you;

For if ye love those who love you, what reward have you? do not even the publicans the same thing?

And when thou prayest, be not as the hypocrites: for they love standing in the synagogues and at the corners of the streets, to pray, that they may make a shew to men. Verily I say unto you, That they have their reward.

No man can serve two masters: for he will either hate the one, and love the other; or he will adhere to the one, and disregard the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Then Jesus said to him, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind."

And the second is like to it, "Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself."

and love the principal couch at suppers, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many will grow cool.

and thou shalt love the Lord thy God, with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength. This is the first commandment.

And the second, like it, is this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself: there is no greater commandment than these.

and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength; and to love his neighbour as himself, is better than all burnt offerings, and sacrifices.

And he spake to them in the course of his teaching, Beware of the scribes, who love to go about in trailing robes, and like salutations in the places of concourse,

But I say to you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you;

And if ye love them that love you, what thanks are due to you? for even sinners love those who love them.

But love your enemies, and do good and lend, hoping for nothing in return: and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Most High; for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the wicked.

But having nothing to pay, he forgave them both. Tell me, which of these, then, will love him most?

And he answering said, "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might, and with all thy understanding, and thy neighbour as thyself."

But wo to you, Pharisees, because ye tithe mint, and rue, and every herb, and pass by judgment and the love of God. These ought ye to have done, and not to have omitted the other.

Wo unto you, Pharisees, for ye love the first seats in the synagogues, and salutations in the places of public concourse.

No domestic can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or he will cleave to the one, and neglect the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk about in trailing robes, and love salutations in the public places, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the most honourable couch at suppers;

But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you.

Therefore doth the Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; even as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

If ye love me, keep my commandments.

He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he is the person who loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

Jesus answered and said to him, If any man love me, he will observe my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come to him, and make our abode with him.

But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father hath given me commandment, so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

Just as the Father hath loved me, I also have loved you: abide in my love.

If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and as I abide in his love.

This is my commandment, That ye love one another, just as I have loved you.

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

These things I command you, that ye love one another.

If ye were of the world, the world would love its own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have elected you out of the world, for this very cause the world hateth you.

And I have made known to them thy name, and will make it known: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith to him, Yes, Lord! thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.

He saith to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee! Jesus saith to him, Feed my sheep.

and hope doth not make us ashamed; because the love of God is poured out into our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given to us.

But God commendeth his own love towards us, that, though we were yet sinners, Christ died in our stead.

But we know that to those who love God all things work together for good, even to those who are called according to his purpose.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall distress of circumstances, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or the sword?

nor exaltation, nor deepest depression, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Let love be undissembled. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.

For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is comprised in this word, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

Love doeth no ill to a neighbour; the fulfilment therefore of the law is love.

But if by meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no more according to love. Do not by thy meat destroy him for whom Christ died.

Now I exhort you, brethren, by our Lord Jesus Christ, and by the love of the Spirit, that you wrestle earnestly with me in prayers for me unto God;

But, as it is written, "The things which eye hath not seen, and ear hath not heard, and that have not entered into the heart of man, these hath God prepared for those who love him."

What is your wish? That I should come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

NOW concerning the things sacrificed to idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffeth up, but love edifieth.

But if any man love God, the same is known of him.

THOUGH I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am become as sounding brass, and tinkling cymbal.

And though I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries, and all manner of science; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

And if I deal out all my goods in alms, and deliver up my body that I should be burned, but have not love, I am nothing advantaged by it.

Love is long-suffering, is kind; love envieth not; love is no vain boaster, is not inflated [with pride],

Love never faileth: but if there be prophetic gifts, they shall be no more; if tongues, they shall cease; if science, it shall vanish away.

But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; but the greater of these is love.

FOLLOW earnestly after love, and zealously seek spiritual gifts, but rather that ye may prophesy.

Let all your concerns be transacted in love.

If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema, Maranatha.

My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.

For out of much affliction and anguish of heart I wrote unto you with many tears, not that ye should be grieved, but that ye might know the love which I have more abundantly towards you.

Wherefore I exhort you to confirm your love towards him.

For the love of Christ constraineth us, because we judge thus, that if one died for all, then were all dead:

in purity, in knowledge, in long-suffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

So as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and elocution, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

I speak not by commandment, but because of the forwardness of others, and to prove the genuineness of your love.

Therefore shew unto them, and in the presence of the churches, a proof of your love, and of our [just] boasting in you.

Wherefore? Because I love you not? God knoweth.

And I will most cheerfully spend and be spent for your souls, though the more abundantly I love you, the less I am loved.

Finally, brethren, rejoice: be perfectly united together, be comforted, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all. Amen.

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but faith exerting its energy by love.

For ye have been called unto liberty, brethren; only use not that liberty as a pretext for carnality, but in love be subject one to another.

For the whole law is fulfilled in one word, even in this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, fidelity,

as he hath elected us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him in love:

For this cause I also, since I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and the love ye have to all saints,

But God, being rich in mercy, through the great love with which he hath loved us,

that Christ may dwell by faith in your hearts; that rooted and grounded in love,

and to know the love of Christ, transcendently surpassing knowledge, that ye may be filled with all the fulness of God.

with all humility and meekness, with long suffering, forbearing one another in love;

but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, who is the head, even Christ:

From whom the whole body nicely joined together, and firmly connected by every joint of exact proportion, according to the energy exerted in the measure of every several part, causeth the increase of the body unto the edification of itself in love.

and walk in love as Christ also hath loved us, and given himself for us, an oblation and sacrifice to God, for an odour of a sweet smell.

Husbands, love your own wives, as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

So ought husbands to love their own wives as their own bodies. He that loveth his own wife loveth himself.

Nevertheless let every one of you individually see that each love his own wife even as himself; but the wife that she stand in awe of the husband.

Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.

And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and all understanding;

but the others of love, knowing that I am exposed for the defence of the gospel.

IF there be then any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any communion of spirit, if any bowels and compassions,

fulfil ye my joy, that ye may be united in sentiment, having the same love, of one soul, of one mind.

having heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and the love ye show to all the saints;
