28 Say a bracha for the ones cursing you, daven for the ones mistreating you.

Lukas 6:28 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 6:28

Bless them that curse you;
&c.] In common discourse, or anathematize you in their synagogues:

and pray for them which despitefully use you:
so Christ himself did; (See Gill on Matthew 5:44).

Lukas 6:28 In-Context

26 Woe when all Bnei Adam speak well of you. For according to the same things were their Avot doing to the neviei hasheker (false prophets).
27 But to you I say, to the ones listening, show ahavah to your oyvim (enemies), do mitzvahs for the ones with sinas chinom for you,
28 Say a bracha for the ones cursing you, daven for the ones mistreating you.
29 To the one hitting you on the cheek, offer also the other, and from the one taking away your kaftan (coat), also the tunic and gartel do not withhold.
30 To everyone asking you, give tzedakah; and from the one taking away your things, do not demand them back. [DEVARIM 15:7,8; MISHLE 21:26]
