Luke 6:24-34

24 "But woe to ¹you who are rich, for ²you are receiving your comfort in full.

25 "Woe to you who are well-fed now, for you shall be hungry. Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.

26 "Woe to you when all men speak well of you, for their fathers used to treat the ³false prophets in the same way.

27 "But I say to you who hear, ⁴love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

28 bless those who curse you, ⁵pray for those who mistreat you.

29 "⁶Whoever hits you on the cheek, offer him the other also; and whoever takes away your coat, do not withhold your shirt from him either.

30 "Give to everyone who asks of you, and whoever takes away what is yours, do not demand it back.

31 "⁷Treat others the same way you want them to treat you.

32 "⁸If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.

33 "If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.

34 "⁹If you lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners in order to receive back the same amount.
