Enemies » Duty to enemies
"If you encounter your enemy's ox or donkey wandering off, you must by all means return it to him.
Rather, if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing this you will be heaping burning coals on his head.
But I say to you, love your enemy and pray for those who persecute you,

If I have rejoiced over the misfortune of my enemy or exulted because calamity found him --
Do not rejoice when your enemy falls, and when he stumbles do not let your heart rejoice,
If your enemy is hungry, give him food to eat, and if he is thirsty, give him water to drink, for you will heap coals of fire on his head, and the Lord will reward you.
