38「你們聽過有話說：『以眼還眼，以牙還牙。』39但是我告訴你們：不要與惡人作對。有人打你的右臉，連另一邊也轉過去由他打。40有人想要告你，要拿你的裡衣，連外衣也由他拿去。41有人強迫你走一里路，你就跟他走二里。42有求你的，就給他；有向你借貸的，不可推辭。」43「你們聽過有話說：『要愛你的鄰舍，恨你的仇敵。』44但是我告訴你們：要愛你們的仇敵，為那迫害你們的禱告。45這樣，你們就可以作天父的兒女了。因為他叫太陽照好人，也照壞人；降雨給義人，也給不義的人。46你們若只愛那愛你們的人，有甚麼賞賜呢？就是稅吏不也是這樣做嗎？47你們若只請你弟兄的安，有甚麼比別人強呢？就是外邦人不也是這樣做嗎？48所以，你們要完全，如同你們的天父是完全的。」

38 You have knowledge that it was said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth:

39 But I say to you, Do not make use of force against an evil man; but to him who gives you a blow on the right side of your face let the left be turned.

40 And if any man goes to law with you and takes away your coat, do not keep back your robe from him.

41 And whoever makes you go one mile, go with him two.

42 Give to him who comes with a request, and keep not your property from him who would for a time make use of it.

43 You have knowledge that it was said, Have love for your neighbour, and hate for him who is against you:

44 But I say to you, Have love for those who are against you, and make prayer for those who are cruel to you;
