Listen to Lucas 6:34
34 E que mérito terão se emprestarem a pessoas de quem esperam devolução? Até os pecadores emprestam a pecadores, esperando receber devolução integral.

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.

Lucas 6:34 In-Context

32 “Que mérito vocês terão se amarem aos que os amam? Até os pecadores amam aos que os amam.
33 E que mérito terão se fizerem o bem àqueles que são bons para com vocês? Até os pecadores agem assim.
34 E que mérito terão se emprestarem a pessoas de quem esperam devolução? Até os pecadores emprestam a pecadores, esperando receber devolução integral.
35 Amem, porém, os seus inimigos, façam-lhes o bem e emprestem a eles, sem esperar receber nada de volta. Então, a recompensa que terão será grande e vocês serão filhos do Altíssimo, porque ele é bondoso para com os ingratos e maus.
36 Sejam misericordiosos, assim como o Pai de vocês é misericordioso.
