Mateus 5

Love Your Enemies

43 "You have heard that it was said, *Lev. 19:18‘You shall love your neighbor*Deut. 23:3–6; Ps. 41:10and hate your enemy.’44 But I say to you, *Luke 6:27; Rom. 12:14love your enemies, bless those who curse you, *(Rom. 12:20)do good to those who hate you, and pray *Luke 23:34; Acts 7:60; 1 Cor. 4:12; 1 Pet. 2:23for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,45 that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for *Job 25:3; Ps. 65:9–13; Luke 12:16, 17; Acts 14:17He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.46 *Luke 6:32For if you love those who love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do the same?47 And if you greet your brethren only, what do you do more than others? Do not even the tax collectors do so?48 *Gen. 17:1; Lev. 11:44; 19:2; Luke 6:36; (Col. 1:28; 4:12); James 1:4; 1 Pet. 1:15Therefore you shall be perfect, just *Eph. 5:1as your Father in heaven is perfect.
