Matt 5:43-48
In illo témpore: Dixit Jesus discípulis suis: Audístis, quia dictum est: Diliges próximum tuum, et ódio habébis inimícum tuum. Ego autem dico vobis: Dilígite inimícos vestros, ¶ benefácite his, qui odérunt vos, et oráte pro persequéntibus et calumniántibus vos, ut sitis fílii Patris vestri, qui in cœlis est: qui solem suum oriri facit super bonos et malos, et pluit super justos et injústos. Si enim dilígitis eos, qui vos díligunt, quam mercédem habébitis? nonne et publicáni hoc fáciunt? Et si salutavéritis fratres vestros tantum, quid ámplius fácitis? nonne et éthnici hoc fáciunt? Estóte ergo vos perfécti, sicut et Pater vester cœléstis perféctus est.
At that time, Jesus said to His disciples, You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor, and shall hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who persecute and calumniate you, so that you may be children of your Father in heaven, Who makes His sun to rise on the good and the evil, and sends rain on the just and the unjust. For if you love those that love you, what reward shall you have? Do not even the publicans do that? And if you salute your brethren only, what are you doing more than others? Do not even the Gentiles do that? You therefore are to be perfect, even as your heavenly Father is perfect.
