And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same. But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you. For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them. Matthew 5:44 KJV: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use.

Give to every man that asketh of thee and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again. And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also. But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you, bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.
