CLV(i)
33 "Again, you hear that it was declared to the ancients, You shall not be perjuring, yet you shall be paying to the Lord your oaths.
34 Yet I am saying to you absolutely not to swear, neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God,
35 nor by the earth, for it is a footstool for His feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King;
36 nor by your head should you be swearing, for you are not able to make one hair white or black.
37 Yet let your word be 'Yes, Yes,' 'No, No.' Now what is in excess of these is of the wicked one.
38 "You hear that it was declared, ' An eye for an eye,' and 'A tooth for a tooth.'
39 Yet I am saying to you not to withstand a wicked person, but anyone who slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also.
40 And he who wants to sue you and obtain your tunic, leave him your cloak also.
41 And anyone who conscripts you one mile, go with him two.
42 To him who requests you, give; and from him who wants to borrow from you, you may not turn.
43 "You hear that it was declared, 'You shall be loving your associate' and you shall be hating your enemy.
44 Yet I am saying to you, Love your enemies, and pray for those who are persecuting you,
45 so that you may become sons of your Father Who is in the heavens, for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked and the good, and makes it rain on the just and the unjust.
46 For if ever you should love those who are loving you, what wages have you? Are not the tribute collectors also doing the same?
47 And if ever you should greet your brothers only, what are you doing that is excessive? Are not those of the nations also doing the same?
48 You, then, shall be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.
