If he that hateth thee hunger, give him bread to eat, and, if he be thirsty, give him water to drink;
But love your enemies, and do good and lend, hoping for, nothing, back; and your reward shall be, great, and ye shall be sons of the Most High, - for, he, is, gracious, unto the ungrateful and wicked.

But, I, say unto you, Be loving your enemies, and praying for them who are persecuting you:
