Luke 6:27-38 "But rather, I am now saying to you folks – the people continuing to listen, and constantly hearing – Be habitually loving your enemies (the folks that are hostile in regard to you); be repeatedly doing ideally to (constantly performing beautifully for; habitually making or creating finely among) the folks habitually hating you and repeatedly treating you with ill-will.

JMNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁷ "But rather, I am now saying to you folks – the people continuing to listen, and constantly hearing – Be habitually loving your enemies (the folks that are hostile in regard to you); be repeatedly doing ideally to (constantly performing beautifully for; habitually making or creating finely among) the folks habitually hating you and repeatedly treating you with ill-will. ²⁸ "Repeatedly speak words of goodness, ease, well-being and blessing to the people constantly cursing (or: making negative prayers about) you folks; be constantly thinking goodness and speaking well-being about (or: praying concerning) the folks [that] repeatedly threaten, insult, mistreat or abuse you. ²⁹ "To the person repeatedly striking and beating you upon the cheek or jaw, repeatedly offer (or: present; hold to the side) the other one, as well. "Also, you should not prevent or hinder the one presently picking up and taking your cloak (outer garment) from also [taking your] tunic (undergarment). ³⁰ "Be habitually giving to everyone constantly making requests from you (or: begging from, or demanding [something] of, you), and do not make it a habit (or: cease your custom) to demand it back (or: repeatedly ask for it back) from the person presently or repeatedly taking what is yours. ³¹ "And so, correspondingly and exactly as you folks are normally wanting and intending that humanity (people; mankind) should habitually do to and for you, you, yourselves also, be constantly doing likewise to and for them. ³² "Further, if you folks habitually love and unambiguously accept the people normally loving you, what sort of grace or favor is it by you (or: for you; to you; among you)? You see, the outcasts (folks who by lifestyle or trade are habitually ceremonially unclean or repeatedly break the Law; people who constantly fail to hit the target, fall short of the goal, or make mistakes; sinners) are also normally loving and accepting the folks who are habitually loving them. ³³ "You see, if you folks should continue doing good [to; for; among] the people constantly doing good [to; for; among] you, what sort of grace or favor is it by you (or: for you; to you; among you)? The outcasts (sinners; etc.) are habitually doing the very same thing! ³⁴ "And if you folks should lend [without interest] at the side, to people from which you normally expect to receive [back], what sort of grace or favor is it by you (or: for you; to you; among you)? For you see, outcasts (sinners; etc.) also are habitually lending to outcasts, with an expected result that they should (or: can) get back the equivalent. ³⁵ "In any case, be continuously loving your enemies (the ones hostile to you), and be constantly doing good, and also be habitually lending while expecting [to get] nothing back. Then your wage and reward will proceed being much, and you folks will continue be sons (= have the character and qualities) of the Most High. "You see, He Himself continuously exists being benevolent, usefully kind and profitable upon the ungracious, unthankful and ungrateful, as well as the useless, unprofitable, pernicious and wicked folks. ³⁶ "Continue becoming compassionate people, just as your Father continuously exists being compassionate! ³⁷ "And stop (or: do not continue) separating and judging, and then under no circumstances can you folks be separated and judged; and stop (or: do not continue) pointing down against right relationships and opposing fairness and equity and acting against the Way pointed out and condemning, and then under no circumstances can you be unjustly opposed, condemned or pointed down [at]. Be habitually releasing, and you will proceed being released. ³⁸ "Be constantly giving, and it will continue being given to you – a beautiful, fine and ideal measure: one having been pressed and squeezed down, having been shaken back and forth, [and] continuing to be caused to gush out and spill over (or: repeatedly made to overflow) will they be progressively giving into your bosom (= the pocket formed by tying the outer garment at the waist, then pulling the upper part out into a fold; or: pouring into your lap). You see, the same measure with which you normally measure [out], will continue being [used to] measure in return (or: in its place) to, and for, you folks."
