MKJV(i)
35 not by the earth, for it is the footstool of His feet; not by Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King;
36 nor shall you swear by your head, because you cannot make one hair white or black.
37 But let your word be, Yes, yes; No, no. For whatever is more than these comes from evil.
38 You have heard that it was said, "An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth."
39 But I say to you, Do not resist evil. But whoever shall strike you on your right cheek, turn the other to him also.
40 And to him desiring to sue you, and to take away your tunic, let him have your coat also.
41 And whoever shall compel you to go a mile, go with him two.
42 Give to him who asks of you, and you shall not turn away from him who would borrow from you.
43 You have heard that it was said, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy."
44 But I say to you, Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who despitefully use you and persecute you,
45 so that you may become sons of your Father in Heaven. For He makes His sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.
46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax-collectors do the same?
47 And if you greet your brothers only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax-collectors do so?
48 Therefore be perfect, even as your Father in Heaven is perfect.
