Matthew 5 (NKJV™) | |
43 | "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' |
44 | "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you, |
45 | "that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. |
46 | "For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? |
47 | "And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so? |
48 | "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. |
