Part 11

42:006:026 Woe unto you, when all men shall speak well of you! for so did their fathers to the false prophets.

42:006:027 But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,

42:006:028 Bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you.

42:006:029 And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloak forbid not to take thy coat also.

42:006:030 Give to every man that asketh of thee; and of him that taketh away thy goods ask them not again.

42:006:031 And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

42:006:032 For if ye love them which love you, what thank have ye? for sinners also love those that love them.

42:006:033 And if ye do good to them which do good to you, what thank have ye? for sinners also do even the same.

42:006:034 And if ye lend to them of whom ye hope to receive, what thank have ye? for sinners also lend to sinners, to receive as much again.

42:006:035 But love ye your enemies, and do good, and lend, hoping for nothing again; and your reward shall be great, and ye shall be the children of the Highest: for he is kind unto the unthankful and to the evil.

42:006:036 Be ye therefore merciful, as your Father also is merciful.

42:006:037 Judge not, and ye shall not be judged: condemn not, and ye shall not be condemned: forgive, and ye shall be forgiven:

42:006:038 Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

42:006:039 And he spake a parable unto them, Can the blind lead the blind? shall they not both fall into the ditch?

42:006:040 The disciple is not above his master: but every one that is perfect shall be as his master.

42:006:041 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but perceivest not the beam that is in thine own eye?

42:006:042 Either how canst thou say to thy brother, Brother, let me pull out the mote that is in thine eye, when thou thyself beholdest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, cast out first the beam out of thine own eye, and then shalt thou see clearly to pull out the mote that is in thy brother's eye.

42:006:043 For a good tree bringeth not forth corrupt fruit; neither doth a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

42:006:044 For every tree is known by his own fruit. For of thorns men do not gather figs, nor of a bramble bush gather they grapes.

42:006:045 A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh.

42:006:046 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

42:006:047 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will shew you to whom he is like:

42:006:048 He is like a man which built an house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.

42:006:049 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

42:007:001 Now when he had ended all his sayings in the audience of the people, he entered into Capernaum.

42:007:002 And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.

42:007:003 And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.

42:007:004 And when they came to Jesus, they besought him instantly, saying, That he was worthy for whom he should do this:
