Matthew 5:36-46

36 Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
37 But let your communication be `yea, yea' or `nay, nay'; for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil.
38 "Ye have heard that it hath been said, `An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'
39 But I say unto you that ye resist not evil, but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And if any man will sue thee at the law and take away thy coat, let him have thy cloak also.
41 And whosoever shall compel thee to go a mile, go with him two.
42 Give to him that asketh thee; and from him that would borrow of thee, turn not thou away.
43 "Ye have heard that it hath been said, `Thou shalt love thy neighbor and hate thine enemy.'
44 But I say unto you, love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them that despitefully use you and persecute you,
45 that ye may be the children of your Father who is in Heaven. For He maketh His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if ye love them that love you, what reward have ye? Do not even the publicans the same?
