35 But (A)love your enemies and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return; and your reward will be great, and you will be (B)sons of (C)the Most High; for He Himself is kind to ungrateful and evil people. 36 [a]Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

37 (D)Do not [b]judge, and you will not be judged; and do not [c]condemn, and you will not be condemned; [d](E)pardon, and you will be pardoned. 38 Give, and it will be given to you. They will [e]pour (F)into your lap a (G)good measure—pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will be measured to you in return.”
