27 But I say to you that hear, love ye your enemies, do ye well to them that hated you or do ye well to them that hate you;
28 bless ye men that curse you, pray ye for men that defame you or that falsely challenge you.
29 And to him that smiteth thee on the one cheek, show also the other or give also the tother; and from him that taketh away from thee a cloth, do not thou forbid the coat, (or and as for him who taketh away a cloak from thee, give also thy coat to him).
30 And give to each that asketh thee, and if a man taketh away those things that be thine, ask thou not again (for them).
31 And as ye will that men do to you (or And as ye desire that men do to you), do ye also to them in like manner.
32 And if ye love them that love you, what thank(s), or what grace, is to you? for sinful men love men that love them. (And if ye love those who love you, what credit is that to you? for sinners love those who love them.)
33 And if ye do well to them that do well to you, what grace, or what thank(s), is to you? for sinful men do this thing. (And if ye do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? for sinners do this same thing.)
34 And if ye lend to them of which ye hope to take again, what thank(s), or what grace, is to you? for sinful men lend to sinful men, to take again as much. (And if ye lend to those from whom ye hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? for sinners lend to sinners, to receive back as much.)
35 Nevertheless love ye your enemies, and do ye well, and lend ye, hoping nothing thereof, and your meed shall be much (or and your reward shall be great), and ye shall be the sons of the Highest, for he is benign, or of good will, on unkind men and evil men.
36 Therefore be ye merciful, as your Father is merciful.
37 Do not ye deem, and ye shall not be deemed, (or Do not judge, and ye shall not be judged). Do not ye condemn, and ye shall not be condemned; forgive ye, and it shall be forgiven to you.
38 Give ye, and it shall be given to you. They shall give into your bosom a good measure, and well-filled, and shaken together, and overflowing; for by the same measure, by which ye mete, it shall be meted again to you, (or for by the same measure, by which ye measure, it shall be measured unto you).
39 And he said to them a likeness (or a parable), Whether the blind may lead the blind? nor fall they not both into the ditch? or whether they fall not both into the ditch?
40 A disciple is not above his master (or A student is not above his teacher); but each shall be perfect, if he be as his master.
41 And what seest thou in thy brother’s eye a mote (or And why seest thou a speck in thy brother’s eye), but thou beholdest not a beam, that is in thine own eye?
42 Or how mayest thou say to thy brother, Brother, suffer, (and) I shall cast out the mote of thine eye, (or Brother, allow me, and I shall take out the speck from thine eye), and thou beholdest not a beam that is in thine own eye? Hypocrite, first take out or cast out the beam of thine eye, and then thou shalt see to take out the mote of thy brother’s eye.
43 It is not a good tree, that maketh evil fruits, neither an evil tree, that maketh good fruits;
44 for every tree is known of his fruit. And men gather not figs of thorns, neither men gather a grape of a bush of briers. (for every tree is known by its fruit. And people do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a briar bush.)
