Luc 6:34

Listen to Luc 6:34
34 Et si vous prĂȘtez Ă  ceux de qui vous espĂ©rez recevoir, quel grĂ© vous en saura-t-on? Les pĂ©cheurs aussi prĂȘtent aux pĂ©cheurs, afin de recevoir la pareille.

Luc 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.

Luc 6:34 In-Context

32 Si vous aimez ceux qui vous aiment, quel gré vous en saura-t-on? Les pécheurs aussi aiment ceux qui les aiment.
33 Si vous faites du bien Ă  ceux qui vous font du bien, quel grĂ© vous en saura-t-on? Les pĂ©cheurs aussi agissent de mĂȘme.
34 Et si vous prĂȘtez Ă  ceux de qui vous espĂ©rez recevoir, quel grĂ© vous en saura-t-on? Les pĂ©cheurs aussi prĂȘtent aux pĂ©cheurs, afin de recevoir la pareille.
35 Mais aimez vos ennemis, faites du bien, et prĂȘtez sans rien espĂ©rer. Et votre rĂ©compense sera grande, et vous serez fils du TrĂšs-Haut, car il est bon pour les ingrats et pour les mĂ©chants.
36 Soyez donc miséricordieux, comme votre PÚre est miséricordieux.
