Verse Concepts
If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat. If he is thirsty, give him water to drink. You will heap coals of fire upon his head, and Jehovah will reward you.
If you see your enemy's cow or donkey running loose, take it back to him. If your enemy's donkey falls under its load, help him get the donkey to its feet again. Do not just walk away.
You have heard it said, 'You should love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' (Leviticus 19:18) I say love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!
