ACCORDING TO MATTHEW

V.

"It was said to the ancients, 'You shall not swear falsely, but you shall perform to the Lord
34 your oaths.' But I say to you, do not swear at all: neither by
35 heaven, for it is the throne of God; nor by the earth, for it is the footstool
of His feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the
36 Great King. Nor shall you swear by your head, for you are not
37 able to make one hair white or black. But let your word be
'Yes, yes' and 'No, no'; for whatever is more than these comes from the evil one original: ἐκ τοῦ πονηροῦ; this can be translated as "from evil" or "from the evil one.".

38 You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a
39 tooth for a tooth.' But I say to you, do not resist the one who is evil;
but whoever slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him
40 the other also. And to him who wants to sue you and take your tunic original: χιτῶνα; the inner garment worn next to the skin.,
41 let him have your cloak original: ἱμάτιον; the more expensive outer garment. as well. And whoever compels you to go

43 from the one who wants to borrow from you, do not turn away. You have heard that it was
said, 'You shall love your neighbor and you shall hate* your enemy.'
44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray
45 for those who persecute you; so that you may become sons of your Father
who is in heaven, for He makes His sun rise on the evil
and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. For

47 even the tax collectors original: τελῶναι; notorious in this era for being collaborators with Rome and often corrupt. do the same? And if you greet your
brothers only, what extraordinary thing are you doing? Do not even the pagans original: ἐθνικοί; literally "the nations," referring to non-Jewish people.
48 do the same? Therefore, you shall be perfect, as your
heavenly Father is perfect."

CHAPTER VI.

33 ΛΓ: Eusebian section number 33.

1 "Take care not to practice your righteousness before men,
to be seen by them; otherwise, you have no reward from
2 your Father who is in the heavens. Whenever therefore you give alms,
do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites original: ὑποκριταί; originally referring to stage actors who wore masks. do in the
synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be glorified by men..."
