Luke 6:27-36

Revised Geneva Translation

²⁷ “But I say to you who hear: Love your enemies. Do well to those who hate you.

²⁸ “Bless those who curse you and pray for those who hurt you.

²⁹ “And to the one who strikes you on the cheek, offer also the other, and the one who takes away your cloak, do not forbid to take your coat also.

³⁰ “Give to everyone who asks of you. And from the one who takes away what is yours, do not ask for it back.

³¹ “And as you would have men do to you, so likewise do to them.

³² “For if you love those who love you, what thanks shall you have? For even the sinners love those who love them.

³³ And if you do good to those who do good to you, what thanks shall you have? For even the sinners do the same.

³⁴ “And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what thanks shall you have? For even the sinners lend to sinners to receive the same.

³⁵ “Therefore, love your enemies. And do good. And lend, looking for nothing in return. And your reward shall be great. And you shall be the children of the Most High. For He is kind to the ungrateful and to the evil.

³⁶ “Therefore, be merciful, as your Father is also merciful.
