27 This is what I say to all who will listen to me:Love your enemies, and be good to everyone who hates you.
28 Ask God to bless anyone who curses you, and pray for everyone who is cruel to you.
29 If someone slaps you on one cheek, don't stop that person from slapping you on the other cheek. If someone wants to take your coat, don't try to keep back your shirt.
30 Give to everyone who asks and don't ask people to return what they have taken from you.
31 Treat others just as you want to be treated.
32 If you love only someone who loves you, will God praise you for that? Even sinners love people who love them.
33 If you are kind only to someone who is kind to you, will God be pleased with you for that? Even sinners are kind to people who are kind to them.
