If you lend to those from whom you hope to receive, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, to receive back as much.
Give to him who asks you, and don’t turn away him who desires to borrow from you.
If you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
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 towards the unthankful and evil.
