Lucas 6:34

Listen to Lucas 6:34
34 E se emprestardes �queles de quem esperais receber, que mérito há nisso? Também os pecadores emprestam aos pecadores, para receberem outro tanto.

Lucas 6:34 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:34

And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive
The same again, as from their brethren the Jews; or usury, as from the Gentiles:

what thank have ye?
and yet they looked upon this, in the first instance of it, as a very great kindness, and act of goodness, as appears from the above citation:

for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again;
or "what is equal", and answerable to what they have lent them; that is, the same, or what is equivalent to it.
