Luke 6:34

Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.

that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.

“But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,

By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

It is well with the man who deals graciously and lends. He will maintain his cause in judgment.

Yahweh is good to all. His tender mercies are over all his works.

He who has a generous eye will be blessed; for he shares his food with the poor.

Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.

For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.

And be kind to one another, tender hearted, forgiving each other, just as God also in Christ forgave you.

All day long he deals graciously, and lends. His offspring is blessed.

He who has pity on the poor lends to Yahweh; he will reward him.

Whoever gives one of these little ones just a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, most certainly I tell you he will in no way lose his reward.”

But don’t forget to be doing good and sharing, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.

“ ‘If your brother has become poor, and his hand can’t support himself among you, then you shall uphold him. He shall live with you like an alien and a temporary resident.

but you shall surely open your hand to him, and shall surely lend him sufficient for his need, which he lacks.

For the poor will never cease out of the land. Therefore I command you to surely open your hand to your brother, to your needy, and to your poor, in your land.

When you lend your neighbor any kind of loan, you shall not go into his house to get his pledge.

When you reap your harvest in your field, and have forgotten a sheaf in the field, you shall not go again to get it. It shall be for the foreigner, for the fatherless, and for the widow, that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hands.

The wicked borrow, and don’t pay back, but the righteous give generously.

Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy.

and crying out with a loud voice, he said, “What have I to do with you, Jesus, you Son of the Most High God? I adjure you by God, don’t torment me.”

He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David,

“In this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.

Yet he didn’t leave himself without witness, in that he did good and gave you rains from the sky and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.”

So then, as we have opportunity, let’s do what is good toward all men, and especially toward those who are of the household of the faith.

In this the children of God are revealed, and the children of the devil. Whoever doesn’t do righteousness is not of God, neither is he who doesn’t love his brother.

“If a man borrows anything of his neighbor’s, and it is injured, or dies, its owner not being with it, he shall surely make restitution.

Therefore love the foreigner, for you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

The Levite, because he has no portion nor inheritance with you, as well as the foreigner living among you, the fatherless, and the widow who are within your gates shall come, and shall eat and be satisfied; that Yahweh your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.

For Yahweh your God will bless you, as he promised you. You will lend to many nations, but you will not borrow. You will rule over many nations, but they will not rule over you.

May Yahweh repay your work, and a full reward be given to you from Yahweh, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”

He prepared a great feast for them. When they had eaten and drunk, he sent them away, and they went to their master. So the bands of Syria stopped raiding the land of Israel.

But you be strong, and don’t let your hands be slack; for your work will be rewarded.”

There are those who covet greedily all day long; but the righteous give and don’t withhold.

Give a portion to seven, yes, even to eight; for you don’t know what evil will be on the earth.

In the morning sow your seed, and in the evening don’t withhold your hand; for you don’t know which will prosper, whether this or that, or whether they both will be equally good.

But now Yahweh has spoken, saying, “Within three years, as a worker bound by contract would count them, the glory of Moab shall be brought into contempt, with all his great multitude; and the remnant will be very small and feeble.”

Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor. Perhaps there may be a lengthening of your tranquility.”

Rejoice, and be exceedingly glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For that is how they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways,

Rejoice in that day, and leap for joy, for behold, your reward is great in heaven, for their fathers did the same thing to the prophets.

bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.

But love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing back; and your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High; for he is kind toward the unthankful and evil.

But give for gifts to the needy those things which are within, and behold, all things will be clean to you.

He reasoned within himself, saying, ‘What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’

Therefore “If your enemy is hungry, feed him. If he is thirsty, give him a drink; for in doing so, you will heap coals of fire on his head.”

knowing that whatever good thing each one does, he will receive the same good again from the Lord, whether he is bound or free.

that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without defect in the middle of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you are seen as lights in the world,

knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance; for you serve the Lord Christ.

See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good for one another and for all.

For God is not unrighteous, so as to forget your work and the labor of love which you showed toward his name, in that you served the saints, and still do serve them.

Pure religion and undefiled before our God and Father is this: to visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained by the world.

Let him turn away from evil and do good. Let him seek peace and pursue it.

Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
