Matthew 5:43-45
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
43 (A)“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’(B) 44 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your heavenly Father, for he makes his sun rise on the bad and the good, and causes rain to fall on the just and the unjust.
