24 “But how terrible for you who are rich now; you have had your easy life!
25 How terrible for you who are full now; you will go hungry! How terrible for you who laugh now; you will mourn and weep!
26 “How terrible when all people speak well of you; their ancestors said the very same things about the false prophets.
27 “But I tell you who hear me: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who ill-treat you.
29 If anyone hits you on one cheek, let him hit the other one too; if someone takes your coat, let him have your shirt as well.
30 Give to everyone who asks you for something, and when someone takes what is yours, do not ask for it back.
