Matthew 5:38-48

“You have heard that it was said, An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.   , But I tell you, don’t resist   an evildoer. On the contrary, if anyone slaps you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.   As for the one who wants to sue you and take away your shirt, let him have your coat as well. And if anyone forces you to go one mile, go with him two. Give to the one who asks you, and don’t turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.   “You have heard that it was said, Love your neighbor   , and hate your enemy. But I tell you, love your enemies   and pray for those who   persecute you,   so that you may be   children of your Father in heaven. For he causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.   For if you love those who love you, what reward will you have? Don’t even the tax collectors do the same? And if you greet only your brothers and sisters, what are you doing out of the ordinary?   , Don’t even the Gentiles   do the same? Be perfect,   therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.
