Luke 6:34 in Context — Luke 6
32 Porque si amáis á los que os aman, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores aman á los que los aman.
33 Y si hiciereis bien á los que os hacen bien, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores hacen lo mismo.
34 Y si prestareis á aquellos de quienes esperáis recibir, ¿qué gracias tendréis? porque también los pecadores prestan á los pecadores, para recibir otro tanto.
35 Amad, pues, á vuestros enemigos, y haced bien, y prestad, no esperando de ello nada; y será vuestro galardón grande, y seréis hijos del Altísimo: porque él es benigno para con los ingratos y malos.
36 Sed pues misericordiosos, como también vuestro Padre es misericordioso.
