You have heard that it has been said, You shall love your neighbor, and hate your enemy.

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them who despitefully use you, and persecute you;

For if you love them who love you, what reward have you? do not even the tax collectors the same?

And when you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.

No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

Honor your father and your mother: and, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Jesus said unto 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 unto it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

And love the uppermost places at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues,

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

And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength: this is the first commandment.

And the second is like, namely this, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other commandment greater 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 neighbor as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.

And he said unto them in his doctrine, Beware of the scribes, who love to go in long clothing, and love salutations in the marketplaces,

But I say unto you who hear, Love your enemies, do good to them who hate you,

For if you love them who love you, what thanks have you? for sinners also love those that love them.

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

And when they had nothing to pay, he frankly forgave them both. Tell me therefore, which of them will love him most?

And he answering said, You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself.

But woe unto you, Pharisees! for you tithe mint and rue and all manner of herbs, and pass over justice and the love of God: these ought you to have done, and not to leave the other undone.

Woe unto you, Pharisees! for you love the best seats in the synagogues, and greetings in the markets.

No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and love greetings in the markets, and the highest seats in the synagogues, and the chief places at feasts;

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

Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, you would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.

Therefore does my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, Lord, behold, he whom you love is sick.

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

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

If you love me, keep my commandments.

He that has my commandments, and keeps them, he it is that loves me: and he that loves me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.

Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man loves me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.

But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go from here.

As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue you in my love.

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

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

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

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

If you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.

And I have declared unto them your name, and will declare it: that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them.

So when they had dined, Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me more than these? He said unto him, Yea, Lord; you know that I love you. He said unto him, Feed my lambs.

He said to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? He said unto him, Yea, Lord; you know that I love you. He said unto him, Feed my sheep.

He said unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Do you love me? And he said unto him, Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you. Jesus said unto him, Feed my sheep.

And hope makes not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who is given unto us.

But God commends his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

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

Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creation, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that which is good.

Be tender loving one to another with brotherly love; in honor preferring one another;

Owe no man anything, but to love one another: for he that loves another has fulfilled the law.

For this, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not kill, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness, You shall not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is summed up in this saying, namely, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Love works no ill to his neighbor: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.

But if your brother is grieved with your food, you no longer walk in love. Destroy not him with your food, for whom Christ died.

Now I beseech you, brethren, for the Lord Jesus Christ's sake, and for the love of the Spirit, that you strive together with me in your prayers to God for me;

But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him.

What do you wish? shall I come unto you with a rod, or in love, and in the spirit of meekness?

Now concerning things offered unto idols, we know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a clanging cymbal.

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

And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing.

Love suffers long, and is kind; love envies not; love vaunts not itself, is not puffed up,

Love never fails: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail; whether there be tongues, they shall cease; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away.

And now abides faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Follow after love, and desire spiritual gifts, but rather that you may prophesy.

Let all your things be done with 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 you should be grieved, but that you might know the love which I have more abundantly unto you.

Therefore I beseech you that you would confirm your love toward him.

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

By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Spirit, by love unfeigned,

Therefore, as you abound in everything, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that you abound in this grace also.

I speak not by commandment, but to prove by the earnestness of others, the sincerity of your love.

Therefore show to them, and before the churches, the proof of your love, and of our boasting on your behalf.

Why? because I love you not? God knows.

And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you, though the more abundantly I love you, the less I am loved.

Finally, brethren, farewell. Be restored, be of good comfort, 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 fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all. Amen.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision avails anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith which works by love.

For, brethren, you have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.

For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

According as he has chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

Therefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus, and love unto all the saints,

But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love with which he loved us,

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

And to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God.

With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, 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 being fitly joined together and knit together by that which every joint supplies, according to the effectual working in the measure of every part, makes increase of the body unto the edifying of itself in love.

And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us, and has given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling fragrance.

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

So ought men to love their wives as their own bodies. He that loves his wife loves himself.

Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she respect her husband.

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

Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.

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

But the other of love, knowing that I am set for the defense of the gospel.

If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any affections and mercies,
