Romans 13:8-10
English Standard Version
Fulfilling the Law Through Love
8 (A)Owe no one anything, except to love each other, for (B)the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. 9 For the commandments, (C)“You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, You shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: (D)“You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore (E)love is the fulfilling of the law.

Luke 6:31-38
English Standard Version
31 And (A)as you wish that others would do to you, do so to them.
32 (B)“If you love those who love you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who do good to you, what benefit is that to you? For even sinners do the same. 34 And (C)if you (D)lend to those from whom you expect to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to get back the same amount. 35 But (E)love your enemies, and do good, and lend, expecting nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and (F)you will be sons of (G)the Most High, for (H)he is kind to the ungrateful and the evil. 36 (I)Be merciful, even as (J)your Father is merciful.
Judging Others
37 (K)(L)“Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; (M)forgive, and you will be forgiven; 38 (N)give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put (O)into your lap. For (P)with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.”

Luke 6:31-38
New International Version
31 Do to others as you would have them do to you.(A)
32 “If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you?(B) Even sinners love those who love them. 33 And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. 34 And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you?(C) Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. 35 But love your enemies, do good to them,(D) and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children(E) of the Most High,(F) because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. 36 Be merciful,(G) just as your Father(H) is merciful.
Judging Others(I)
37 “Do not judge, and you will not be judged.(J) Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.(K) 38 Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap.(L) For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.”(M)
