27“But I say to you who hear, alove your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28bless those who curse you, apray for those who disparage you. 29“aWhoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your garment, do not withhold your 1tunic from him either. 30“Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back. 31“And 1,atreat others the same way you want 2them to treat you. 32“aAnd if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33“And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34“aAnd if you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount. 35“But alove your enemies, and do good, and lend, 1expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be bsons of cthe Most High; for He Himself is kind to the ungrateful and evil. 36“1Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
Do Not Judge

They will 1pour ainto your lap a bgood measure—pressed down, shaken together, running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”
