New Testament

Lukas 6:32-35 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

32. And if you show ahavah to the ones showing ahavah to you, what kind of shvakh (commendation) to you is that? For even the chote'im (sinners) show ahavah to the ones showing ahavah to them.

33. For even if you do mitzvahs for the ones doing mitzvahs for you, what kind of shvakh to you is that?

34. And if you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what kind of shvakh to you is that? Even chote'im lend to chote'im, that they receive in return the same amount.

35. But show ahavah to your oyvim and do mitzvahs and Gemilut Chasadim, expecting nothing in return. And your sachar will be rav. And you will be bnei Elyon (sons of the Most High), because He is kind to anashim ra'im and those without hodayah.
