“For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.”
Context
29And unto him that smiteth thee on the cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not coat also.
30Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask not again.
31And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.
32For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.
33And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.
34And if ye lend of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.
35But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and the evil.
